WASHINGTON, D.C.: “So, I got a call from Randy Knorr,” Andrew Stevenson told reporters after homering for the first time in the majors as part of a five-run sixth inning that put the Washington Nationals up 6-4 in what ended up a 10-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night.
Stevenson was in Syracuse, NY when Knorr, the Triple-A Chiefs’ manager, called and told him to get over to NBT Bank Stadium as soon as possible.
