SAN DIEGO (AP) — Kyle Schwarber homered on Joe Musgrove’s fourth pitch and Bryce Harper also had one of the Philadelphia Phillies’ five home runs in a 9-3 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday night. Musgrove (3-3) allowed a career-high four homers and didn’t get out of the fourth. Aaron Nola (4-1) was brilliant in pitching eight innings for the second straight start. He struck out 10 for the first time this season and 31st time in his career, while holding San Diego to three runs and seven hits, with one walk. His only big mistake was allowing rookie Graham Pauley’s two-run homer in the seventh, his second. There was a scary moment in the second when Harper and Jurickson Profar were shaken up after a tag play at first. Nola hopped off the mound, barehanded Profar’s dribbler and threw to Harper, who tagged Profar. Harper spun around from the impact and Profar fell to the ground. Harper tweaked his wrist, and he jogged around on the grass holding it against his lower back. Both players were checked by trainers and stayed in the game. |
