Philadelphia, PA – Edmundo Sosa made headlines on Wednesday night, hitting three home runs during a dominant game for the Philadelphia Phillies against the Miami Marlins. This impressive performance helped the Phillies secure an 11-1 victory and set a new team record of eight home runs in a single game.
Joining Sosa in the power surge was Kyle Schwarber, who contributed two home runs, elevating his season total to 56. With this performance, he is now just four home runs shy of the major league lead, currently held by Seattle’s Cal Raleigh. The record-setting night also saw contributions from teammates Bryson Stott, Alec Bohm, and Otto Kemp, each adding to the Phillies’ formidable total.
The win for the Phillies not only showcased their offensive might but also clinched a first-round bye as they secured one of the top two seeds in the National League playoffs. With an improved season record of 93 wins and 65 losses, they are gearing up for the postseason, which will commence at home on October 4 in a best-of-five Division Series.
Pitcher Jesus Luzardo had an exceptional outing, allowing only three hits and one earned run over seven innings while striking out 10 batters. This victory improved his season record to 15-7 against his former team, the Marlins. In contrast, Miami’s starting pitcher Ryan Weathers struggled, giving up five earned runs and three home runs across 4 2/3 innings. Valente Bellozo, who pitched in the seventh inning, exacerbated the situation by allowing four home runs.
Edmundo Sosa’s remarkable performance comes just after his activation from the injured list, where he was sidelined since September 16 due to a groin injury. Notably, Sosa expressed enthusiasm about achieving his first three-home run game, as he had previously hit two home runs in games without achieving this milestone.
This game marked a significant departure from recent trends, as the Phillies had won five of their last ten outings, while the Marlins were previously on a hot streak, securing victories in 11 of their last 13 games before this loss. The Phillies’ previous team record for home runs in a single game stood at seven, accomplished against Atlanta on August 28.
As the postseason nears, the Phillies will look to build upon this record-setting performance, hoping to carry the momentum into October.
