Kody Clemens, who was recalled from Lehigh Valley on May 4, drove in four runs, including a two-run home run in the second inning.
Bryce Harper went a perfect 3-for-3 at the plate on Tuesday, hitting a grand slam in the fourth inning to break the game open.JJosé Berríos entered Tuesday’s game with an MLB-leading 1.44 ERA. By the time the Blue Jays starter walked off the mound at Citizens Bank Park, that number had ballooned to 2.85, thanks to a Phillies lineup that did not even include Trea Turner, J.T. Realmuto, and Alec Bohm.
Berríos exited the game after that, with his team down by eight runs en route to a 10-1 loss. It wasn’t a surprising outcome, given how Harper has been hitting of late. The Phillies have been waiting for their first baseman to get hot, and it appears he has. Harper went 3-for-3 on Tuesday night, and is slashing .381/.567/.810 over his last seven games with 10 RBI.
After he trotted around the bases, Harper greeted his teammates in the dugout. Kody Clemens was waiting for him at the very end. They gave each other a hug and shared a laugh. Clemens, who was recalled from Lehigh Valley on May 4, was a single and double away from the cycle. Of the 10 runs the Phillies scored on Tuesday night, Clemens drove in four, with a two-run home run in the second, an RBI triple in the fourth, and an RBI groundout in the eighth.
“Just trying to see the ball,” Clemens said in late April. “Start my load earlier. Be quiet with my leg kick or step or whatever you want to call it. See the ball and have good plate discipline. And try to put a good swing when the ball is in the zone. Being confident and staying with my plan.
