The Phillies are half a game behind the New York Mets for the top spot in the NL East at 58-44. They blew a chance to finish off a three-game sweep of the Boston Red Sox their last time out on Wednesday, but allowed 6 runs with two outs in the fifth inning, squandering a 5-0 lead before eventually losing 9-8 in 11 innings.

During Friday’s game against the New York Yankees, Schwarber tied the game in the fifth inning with a two-run home run that marked his 1,000th career hit. His 319th home run became the most homers by any player when reaching the 1,000-hit milestone in MLB history.

The Phillies and Yankees entered into similar places Friday at Yankees Stadium. Both teams are fighting for the division, although the Blue Jays have a much stronger lead than the Mets do, and both are figuring out what they want to do at the trade deadline.
