Entering tonight’s affair, the Phillies had two streaks going: their inability to finish off would-be sweeps, and Kyle Schwarber’s on-base streak. At the end of the night, one streak stood, and the other had fallen.
Bryson Stott started the proceedings with a standup leadoff double, then scored with a pair of productive flyouts. But the Rays quickly tired it up with a Junior Caminero solo shot to the opposite field; while they may not enjoy the benefits of having a proper home field, they do enjoy the benefits of their temporary home’s short porch. They then took the lead in the bottom 3rd on a sacrifice fly.
