Pennsylvania showdown -- Bucs take 2 of 3 but Phils end their streak at 6

PHILLIES, BASEBALL'S BEST TEAM, AVOID SWEEP BY PIRATES, THE HOTTEST TEAM, ON 6-0 SHUTOUT LED BY ROOKIE PITCHER TYLER PHILLIPS IN 2ND START


The Phillies are 63-36, and they've had the best record in MLB for months. They have Harper, Bohm, and Nola. They just got Turner and Realmuto back from the IL. They lost the first 2 of 3 games in Pittsburgh this weekend, but showed their mettle Sunday with a resounding 6-0 win. Philadelphia has been a marvel of consistency all season. They lead MLB in ERA and Strikeouts (thrown); they're 3rd in batting, 4th in RBIs and Stolen Bases, and first in victories. They are healthy again.

They are the team to beat in MLB. (AP Photo/Matt Freed)
