Stott Sets Impressive Philadelphia Phillies Franchise Record on Tuesday
The Philadelphia Phillies are off to another strong start as they put together a three-run first inning against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday. It is the first game of the doubleheader and White Sox starter Lance Lynn is on the mound.
The Phillies got to Lynn early by scoring three runs in the first inning alone, the second time in as many days to give their starters some cushion.
Second baseman Bryson Stott led off the inning with a single to center field. It is his 17th consecutive game with a hit, setting a modern day franchise record to start the season.
Kyle Schwarber then walked to put two men on base. Nick Castellanos, who has been unbelievable to start the year, singled home Stott.
Brandon Marsh continued his tear with a single to load the bases. Alec Bohm then made it 3-0 with an RBI-single to right field.
It has been an impressive display here early as Philadelphia begins to look more like themselves.
