Phillies Sneak Past Guardians, 8-7
The Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Cleveland Guardians, 8-7, at Citizens Bank Park. Matt Menendez was one of the standouts for Philadelphia. His 3 hits included 2 singles and 1 triple -- this in addition to the 2 runs he scored and 1 he knocked in. The win went to Kyle O'Brien in relief, making him now 6-8. Drew Goodwin took the loss for Cleveland. With the win, the Phillies have a record of 75-72.

Philadelphia got a knockout punch from Henry Quiroz. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"Getting the win feels nice," said Menendez. "More importantly, I had a good game."
