Winning despite themselves: Phillies 4, Brewers 3

If you were going to draw up a formula for victory, it probably wouldn’t include making three errors - as well as a couple of other defensive plays that weren’t made - and going two for ten with runners in scoring position. But thanks to a strong start by Aaron Nola, good relief work by Gregory Soto and Craig Kimbrel, and just enough offense, the Phillies were able to overcome their mistakes and beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3.

Kyle Schwarber entered the night having hit home runs in three straight games. It only took one pitch to extend that streak to four.
