Harper, Clemens lift Phillies to 4
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Bryce Harper hit a game-winning sacrifice fly in the 10th inning after Kody Clemens tied it with a home run with two outs in the ninth, lifting the Philadelphia Phillies to a 4-3 victory over the Washington Nationals on Saturday night.
Bryson Stott also homered for Philadelphia, which has won or split each of its last 14 series. The Phillies (33-14) have the most wins in baseball and will go for the three-game series sweep on Sunday.
“We’re never out,” Harper said. “You play 27 outs for a reason, and we do a great job with that. We have all the confidence in the world in every guy’s ability in this clubhouse.”
CJ Abrams and Ildemaro Vargas each had three hits for the Nationals, who have lost four straight and six of seven.
“We had a chance to put the game away early, and we just didn’t do it,” Washington manager Dave Martinez said.
