Lile's pinch 3-run homer lifts Nationals to 6-3 win over Phillies

Pinch-hitter Daylen Lile hit a tiebreaking three-run homer in the seventh inning, and the Washington Nationals defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 6-3. Andrés Chaparro also homered for Washington, which won its fourth in a row for the first time since June 13-16. Kyle Schwarber hit his majors-leading 45th homer for Philadelphia, which has dropped four of five but continues to hold an NL wild-card spot.

Lile went deep against Jonathan Bowlan, who relieved Phillies starter Cristopher Sánchez with two on and a 3-3 tie in the seventh.
