Kyle Schwarber Back To Leadoff Spot, Aaron Nola dazzles

The Philadelphia Phillies stayed hot in San Diego on Tuesday night, outlasting the Padres 4-3 to take a 2-0 series lead and put themselves one win away from a sweep. Aaron Nola was outstanding on the mound, tossing 6 solid innings with 5 strikeouts on just 80 pitches, earning his spot in the win column as the Phillies' ace continues to anchor this rotation. Offensively, Bryce Harper provided the big blow — a solo home run to go along with 2 runs scored. J.T. Realmuto also went deep, and Trea Turner added a home run of his own as the Phillies launched 3 bombs off Padres starter Randy Vásquez. Jhoan Duran closed it out with a perfect 9th, striking out 2 to seal the win. Now the Phillies look to complete the series sweep TODAY at Petco Park before packing their bags for Los Angeles, where they'll open a huge three-game series against the Dodgers this Friday night.
