Harper's 2-run 9th Inning Hit Caps Phillies 7-5 Win Over Tampa

 Phillies Win. Bryce Harper's 2-run single in the 9th gave the Phillies' insurance with a 7-3 lead over Tampa and they needed it, as the Rays put together four 9th inning singles including two doubles and chasing all three PB 2-8 relievers. That left a PB 4-7 (average) reliever Tanner Banks to close out the game.

The Phillies exploded in the first with single by Kyle Schwarber, RBI-double by Trea Turner, and 2-run homer by Max Kepler to make it 3-0. However, after our last Statis-Pro game yielded only three hits there were 24 combined hits in this 7-5 Phillies wins. The Rays No. 9 hitter Matt Thaiss was the only player on either team with three hits in the game, including an RBI single in the 5th inning to get the Rays on the Board, and then an RBI-double in the 9th to chase the last PB 2-8 reliever.
