The Phillies lost their third straight even though Trea Turner tied a franchise record by homering in a fifth consecutive game. Kyle Schwarber led off the game with a homer for the second straight night and J.T. Realmuto also went deep for the Phillies.
Carlos Santana had a two-run homer, Mark Canha doubled twice and the Milwaukee Brewers withstood a late comeback attempt to beat the Philadelphia Phillies 7-5 on Saturday night.
The Phillies had runners on third and second in the ninth when Devin Williams struck out Turner swinging at a 3-2 pitch to end the game and earn his 32nd save in 36 opportunities. Turner had hit a three-run homer off Williams in the eighth inning of the Phillies' 7-5 loss to the Brewers one night earlier.
Brewers starter Colin Rea settled down from there and left with the Brewers leading 3-2 in the fifth. Rea struck out six and allowed three hits, two runs and no walks in 4 1/3 innings in his first appearance for the Brewers since Aug. 4.Philadelphia’s Aaron Nola had gone 6-1 with a 2.30 ERA in his 11 previous career starts against the Brewers, but he couldn’t protect that early lead Saturday.
The Brewers added four more runs in the fifth. After Contreras hit a one-out double, Santana homered to right center to extend his hitting streak to 11 games. Canha hit a two-out RBI double that sent Nola out of the game, then Turang greeted Andrew Bellatti with a run-scoring single.
