Phillies Final Score: Fightins Offense Explodes Like Twitter in 19-4 Win Over Washington

Philadelphia Phillies INF Alec Bohm hit two home runs and drove in six as the Fightins throttled the Washington Nationals, final score 19-4, on Saturday in South Philadelphia.  

The Phillies’ 19-run outbreak was the most runs scored by the team since a 20-1 victory over the Miami Marlins in 2018.  Every starter in the Phillies lineup registered a hit against the hapless Nationals.  In addition to the two homers by Bohm, Nick Castellanos and Kyle Schwarber also homered.  In all, the Phillies offense batted around three innings in a row in Saturday;s win.  

Phillies starter Zack Wheeler earned the win after allowing four earned runs and striking out six over seven innings of work.  It wasn’t Wheeler’s best outing but thankfully he was spotted an 10-run lead by the Phils’ offense. 

Here’s a closer look at how they scored, stats and facts from the game, and what’s on deck for the Phillies.
