After dropping the series to the Angels, the Phillies are clinging to first place in the National League East — and they have a losing record since June 1.

Both the Philadelphia Phillies and the Los Angeles Angels are looking for a series win with a victory on Sunday

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel was removed from Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies after being hit by a pitch.

For the Phillies, they had a chance to come out of the break like gang busters and fell on their face, rescued only by a grand slam of Schwarbarian performance. Today? Ranger Suarez didn’t have it.

Coming off his All-Star Game performance, Schwarber hit a grand slam in the sixth inning to give the Phillies the lead. Harper added some insurance with a two-run homer in the eighth.
