Josiah Gray struck out a career-high 11 and shook off Kyle Schwarber's second consecutive two-homer game to help the last-place Washington Nationals beat the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 on Wednesday night.
Luis Garcia hit a two-run double in the seventh inning off Phillies starter Aaron Nola for a 3-2 lead, spoiling another sensational power display from Schwarber.
Schwarber’s homer-happy production in the first half has stamped him among the greats in franchise history for best starts with the long ball.__ He is the first Phillies player with back-to-back multi-homer games since Chase Utley in 2006. Schwarber had a chance to tie the game leading off the eighth but struck out on a check swing against Kyle Finnegan.
