Daily News | Depleted Phillies rally to snap five-game losing streak, top Giants, 6-5
Phillies’ Bryson Stott steals second base easily against Giants’ third baseman Jason Vosler during the 3rd inning at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Wednesday, June 1, 2022After five straight losses, the Phillies finally put one in the win column on Wednesday night with a 6-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants at Citizens Bank Park. In many ways, the comeback win felt like the antithesis of their past five losses .
“I think we needed a win before today, but this was a great way to go into an off day,” said manager Joe Girardi. “These guys have been grinding. A lot of guys have played every day in this 16-day run. We get an off day {Thursday] and we get an off day Monday. Hopefully that refreshes our guys. But I think we really needed [a win] bad.”As has become customary for them lately, the Phillies held a tenuous lead entering the later innings.
“The young guys did a really good job tonight,” said Kyle Schwarber, who followed with the second two-run homer in the inning to give the Phillies the lead. “Maton obviously with the big homer there, but I think everyone’s going to forget the bunt play [that went for an RBI single in the fourth inning]. That’s a big play right there. And getting it down off a guy like that [Giants starter Carlos Rodon].
