Hoskins` 3-run homer leads Phils to split of DH
(MLB.com Philadelphia Phillies)

A mere four pitches into Game 2 of Thursday`s doubleheader against the Mets, New York had tagged Zach Eflin for three doubles and two runs. The Phillies, at that point, barely had a chance to digest the 24-4 loss they had endured earlier in the day. But with one swing, Rhys Hoskins blanketed that fresh memory with something a little sweeter for the 33,049 fans at Citizens Bank Park. He mashed a 2-2 changeup from Mets starter Steven Matz and watched from the batter`s box as it it clinked off the netting of the left-field foul pole to give the Phillies a one-run lead in the first inning of what became a crucial 9-5 Phillies win.
