Mets Pitcher Smith Undergoes Tommy John Surgery PHILADELPHIA -- — Tyler Phillips pitched into the seventh inning in his first career start, Bryce Harper and Trea Turner hit two of Philadelphia's four home runs and the Phillies defeated the Oakland Athletics 11-5 on Saturday. Nick Castellanos had a home run and four RBI and Johan Rojas also went deep for the NL East-leading Phillies, who have won four of five. “We got it going early and kept it going,” Harper said. Brent Rooker homered, doubled and singled for Oakland. “He’s been locked in,” A’s manager Mark Kotsay said. Phillips (1-0) gave up four runs on six hits while striking out five and walking none. The 26-year-old right-hander was lifted after Rooker’s homer and Shea Langeliers’ double to start the seventh. Phillips grew up as a Phillies fan in nearby Lumberton, New Jersey, about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) from Citizens Bank Park and attended high school at nearby Bishop Eustace Prep. “I knew it was going to be crazy because I am a Phillies fan,” Phillips said. “It was probably everything and more.” He made his debut last Sunday at Atlanta when he pitched four innings of relief. In two appearances, he has 12 strikeouts and no walks. Phillips left to a standing ovation from the sellout crowd of 44,231. It was the 15th consecutive home sellout and 29th overall this season. “I was fighting back tears,” he said. Turner’s two-run homer to left-center and Rojas’ solo shot off Mitch Spence (5-6) accounted for Philadelphia’s three-run fourth inning that gave the Phillies a 6-2 lead. Turner, one of a franchise-record eight Philadelphia All-Stars, has seven home runs in 11 games this month. Spence gave up five hits and six runs in 3 2/3 innings. Harper launched his 21st of the season in the seventh off reliever Austin Adams. The two-time NL MVP has now homered against every team in the majors. “Pretty cool accomplishment,” he said. TRAINER’S ROOM Athletics: Right-hander Michel Otañez left the game immediately after taking a line drive from Turner off his pitching arm in the eighth inning. Kotsay said Otañez has a forearm bruise that is more muscular in nature. Phillies: Left-hander Ranger Suárez will not participate in the All-Star game due to back spasms and lower back tightness, president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski said. The move is considered precautionary, and Suárez is expected to return to the rotation during a three-game series at Minnesota starting July 22. UP NEXT The clubs wrap up their three-game series on Sunday before pausing for the All-Star break. RHP Joey Estes (3-4, 5.53) goes for Oakland. Philadelphia hasn’t announced its starter. ------ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb
