"I don't really pay attention to that stuff. I was very surprised myself," said Phillips, who was replaced by Skip Schumaker before the seventh inning. "I could have sworn Willie Mays, Hank Aaron or Rickey Henderson, some of those guys probably did it. But I don't know where y'all get these stats from. Y'all probably just digging in the box trying to find something, and I'll tell you one thing: I'm glad y'all really told me, because I'm really feeling myself right now. History baby."
It was only the seventh time in Phillips' 14-year career that he hit two home runs in a game and first time since April 12, 2013.
