Wheeler shines as Phillies blank Pirates to complete sweep and climb above .500
Zack Wheeler pitched seven scoreless innings as the Phillies defeated the Pirates 6-0 to complete a sweep and move above .500 for the first time this season. Paul Skenes faded in the fifth, allowing a three-run frame that included Bryce Harper’s homer and Bryson Stott’s RBI double, with Stott later adding a solo shot in the eighth. The Phillies’ bullpen held the lead, and they’ll host the Reds next with Andrew Painter slated to start.
