Philadelphia Phillies ’ Weston Wilson , center, is doused by teammates Brandon Marsh, right, and Bryson Stott after a victory over the Washington Nationals in a baseball game, Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024, in Philadelphia. Philadelphia Phillies ’ Weston Wilson reacts after hitting a triple off Washington Nationals ’ Mitchell Parker during the fourth inning of a baseball game, Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024, in Philadelphia.
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. Zack Wheeler moved one behind Atlanta’s Chris Sale for most wins in the National League and the Phillies scored at least nine runs for the second straight game.
Wheeler set a needed tone in the first when he struck out the first two batters in a 1-2-3 inning. The Phillies allowed the Diamondbacks and Marlins to score in the first inning in each of the last five games — and the Phillies went 1-4. Perhaps with the pressure off to deliver a comeback, the Phillies felt more free at the plate.Parker allowed nine runs and 10 hits in three innings and his ERA jumped from 3.83 to 4.44.
