Philadelphia Phillies centerfielder Odubel Herrera stood out at the plate in Sunday’s 6-2 victory against the Boston Red Sox. He provided a spark of energy for a team that had previously been lifeless throughout the weekend series.

Hitting second in the lineup for the first time this season, Herrera finished 3-4 with a pair of doubles, a run scored, and stolen base. As part of a four-run first inning, Herrera was hit by a pitch and stole second. Four innings later, he also notably hustled out a hit to right field, stretching a single into a double.
