NEW YORK (AP) — Phillies prospect Enyel De Los Santos was slated to be the International League’s starting pitcher in the Triple-A All-Star Game on Wednesday. Instead, he joined the big club and made the most of an unexpected opportunity.
De Los Santos won his major league debut and Philadelphia got home runs from Maikel Franco and Odubel Herrera in a 7-3 victory over the New York Mets on Tuesday night.
Franco drove in four runs as the Phillies won for the 10th time in 13 games and took over sole possession of first place in the NL East.
