• Phillies' Rhys Hoskins: Ends homer drought

  2D ago •

  Hoskins went 1-for-3 with a home run, an additional run scored and two walks in Tuesday's loss against the Yankees. Hoskins had gone eight straight games without a home run but snapped that skid here with a solo bomb in the second inning off Domingo German. The slugger now has 21 homers on the season and has a realistic shot at posting the second 30-homer campaign of his big-league career. He's also seeing the ball well, as he's hitting .304 with a 1.170 OPS across 56 plate appearances this month.

• Phillies' Rhys Hoskins: Cranks solo homer

  20D ago •

  Hoskins went 2-for-3 with two RBI and a walk Saturday against the Padres. Hoskins took Yu Darvish deep in the second inning, then he connected for an RBI double off the San Diego starter in the sixth. It was the first multi-hit effort since June 22 for Hoskins, who came into the day with a .312 OPS over his last eight games. The 28-year-old leads the Phillies in homers (18) and RBI (46), but that production has come with a pedestrian .225/.301/.460 slash line, while his .761 OPS is on pace for the lowest of his career.
