Phillies (19-21) vs. Cleveland Indians (21-17) First pitch at 1:05 p.m.

PHILADELPHIA—Two weeks ago to the day, the Phillies performance hit its basement level. Tonight, in a 6-2 win at Citizens Bank Park, it scraped its ceiling. The opponent, the Cleveland Indians, was the same. The difference was everything else...

Phillies (12-14) at Cleveland Indians (10-13) First pitch at 7:10 p.m. This isn’t the Phillies' first stroke of scheduling luck.
