Phillies' Weston Wilson hits for cycle in win over Nationals

PHILADELPHIA -- Weston Wilson become the ninth Phillies player to hit for the cycle, Alec Bohm and Nick Castellanos had consecutive homers in the first inning and Philadelphia overpowered the Washington Nationals 13-3 on Thursday night.

Wilson tripled and singled in the fourth; homered in the seventh and, then - with fans chanting "Double! Double!" - doubled to right in the eighth, with Alex Call failing on a diving attempt.

Wilson had the 10th cycle in Phillies history - Chuck Klein did it twice - and he was the first home player to accomplish the feat at Citizens Bank Park since David Bell in 2004.
