MLB: New York Mets at Philadelphia Phillies
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Rhys Hoskins shook off a slump with a three-RBI double, Jean Segura homered and Aaron Nola tossed seven scoreless innings to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a 6-2 win over the New York Mets. Nola was sensational again for the Phillies and retired his final 13 batters. Nola tossed three-hit ball and struck out eight over seven innings. Mets starter Steven Matz allowed six runs and dropped to 0-4. The Phillies have won the first two games of the series.
