PHILADELPHIA -- Weston Wilson became the ninth Phillies player to hit for the cycle, Alec Bohm and Nick Castellanos had consecutive homers in the first inning and Philadelphia overpowered the Washington Nationals 13-3 on Thursday night.

Wilson tripled and singled in the fourth; homered in the seventh and, then - with fans chanting "Double! Double!" - doubled to right in the eighth, with Alex Call failing on a diving attempt.
