Phillies suffer crushing loss to Giants, leave San Francisco with crushing sweep

Final Score: Giants 5, Phillies 3

SAN FRANCISCO — If the Phillies flew out of Phoenix, Ariz. after losing two of three to the sub-.500 Diamondbacks with Train’s “Save Me, San Francisco” blasting on the team plane as somewhat of a plea, well, San Francisco’s answer to that plea this weekend was unambiguous:

“Nah.”

The Phillies dropped the final leg of a three-game sweep to the Giants on Sunday, letting a valiant comeback effort fall by the wayside as one of the season’s more crushing losses ended one of the season’s most dejecting series in sweep fashion.
