Phils last to get 1st win, beat Yanks behind Schwarber

NEW YORK — Kyle Schwarber hit his 200th career homer on the game's second pitch and added an RBI single as the Philadelphia Phillies became the last team in the major leagues to get a win this season, beating the New York Yankees 4-1 on Tuesday night to avoid their worst start since 1934.

The NL champions had one homer and been outscored 37-12 during an 0-4 start and were on the verge on their poorest beginning to a season since dropping their first seven games in 1934.

"It was a good offensive night," Philadelphia manager Rob Thomson said.
