Fireworks are usually associated with the holiday of Independence Day, but with the Phillies granted an almost unheard of off-day on July 4th, fans had to wait an extra day to see their baseball team deliver some explosions.

That’s pretty much what the Phillies did to Washington’s baseball team on Tuesday night as they recorded an 11-0 annihilation of the Nationals.
Kyle Schwarber set the tone in the first inning.
And then he did it again in the third.
