Trea Turner hit two home runs in an eight-run eighth inning and the Philadelphia Phillies went deep five times on Saturday, rallying for a 12-3 win over the Washington Nationals.
Nick Castellanos, Jake Cave and Bryson Stott also homered for Philadelphia, which began the day two games ahead of San Francisco in the race for the top wild-card spot in the National League. The Phillies had lost four of five.
Turner, a former member of the Nationals, led off the eighth inning by sending Cory Abbott’s 93-mph fastball into the seats in left. Abbott , who was pitching for the first time since Aug. 11, allowed seven more runs, including a three-run homer by Stott that preceded Turner' second home run in the inning.
Philadelphia designated hitter Bryce Harper was booed prior to each of his plate appearances, a ritual that has been customary since he signed with the Phillies in 2019 after spending the first seven seasons of his career in Washington. Harper was 1 for 2, walked twice and was twice hit by a pitch. The Nationals scored twice in the fourth against Phillies starter Cristopher Sanchez. Joey Meneses had an RBI single and Adams added a run-scoring double to left that caromed off the wall in foul territory and allowed another run to score.
