Phillies collect season-high 17 hits, edge Brewers
Jun 13, 2026; Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA; Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (10) celebrates with second baseman Bryson Stott (5) after hitting a three-run home run in the sixth inning against the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field. Mandatory Credit: Benny Sieu-Imagn Images J.T. Realmuto homered and drove in four runs as the Philadelphia Phillies held on for a 9-8 road victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday.
Kyle Schwarber, Brandon Marsh, Edmundo Sosa and Realmuto had three hits apiece for Philadelphia, which registered a season-high 17 hits after getting one-hit by Milwaukee ace Jacob Misiorowski on Friday. Bryson Stott contributed two hits, two RBIs and two runs for the Phillies.
Jackson Chourio homered twice as part of a 4-for-5 night for the Brewers. Garrett Mitchell also homered for Milwaukee, while William Contreras had three hits for the hosts.
Milwaukee trailed 8-3 in the seventh when Chourio’s two-run homer started to make things interesting. Philadelphia added an insurance run in the eighth, but the Brewers responded with three in their half of the frame against Brad Keller.
With two runners on, Contreras fouled out to end the inning.
That proved to be the Brewers’ best chance down the stretch, as closer Jhoan Duran logged a 1-2-3 ninth for his 18th save.
Sosa’s homer against Shane Drohan (3-2) gave Philadelphia a 1-0 lead in the second inning. The Phillies then tacked on two more runs in the fourth, as Stott delivered an RBI double and later scored on Realmuto’s hit to right.
Milwaukee got on the board on Mitchell’s two-run homer against starter Aaron Nola in the bottom of the fourth and tied it, 3-3, one inning later when Chourio homered to center.
The deadlock didn’t last long. Marsh singled against Drohan to open the sixth before the Brewers summoned Chad Patrick out of the bullpen. Sosa greeted him with a single and Stott followed with a double to plate the go-ahead run.
Realmuto followed by sending a 1-0 sinker over the wall in left-center to make it 7-3.
Bryce Harper tacked on a sacrifice fly later in the inning against Patrick, who gave up four runs and five hits while only recording three outs.
Nola allowed three runs and six hits in 4 2/3 innings. Drohan was charged with four runs and eight hits in five-plus frames.
Left-hander Tim Mayza (2-1) allowed one hit in one-third inning and earned the win for Philadelphia, which has captured eight of its last 11 games.

Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani (knee) not in lineup vs. White Sox
Jun 11, 2026; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (17) advances to third base on a hit and run against the Pittsburgh Pirates during the fourth inning at PNC Park. Mandatory Credit: Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images Although Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts downplayed the severity of the left knee inflammation that caused Shohei Ohtani to be removed from Thursday’s game, the Dodgers star is missing from the lineup for Friday’s series opener at the Chicago White Sox.
Ohtani, who homered and reached four times in four plate appearances in Thursday’s 8-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, was removed in the seventh inning after he experienced pain in his left knee/hamstring area on a stolen base attempt that was negated by a foul ball.
After the game, Roberts said the removal was precautionary and that his level of concern was “not high.”
“We tried to be smart about it and get him out of the game,” Roberts said after the game. “He told the trainer that he felt a little something behind his knee, and I just didn’t see any sense in risking it.”
Roberts also said Thursday that he felt good about the likelihood of Ohtani being in the lineup on Friday. But the Dodgers penciled in Santiago Espinal as their designated hitter for the Chicago opener.
Ohtani, 31, is hitting .305 with 13 homers and 40 RBIs this season, with a 6-2 record and a 1.06 ERA in 11 starts on the mound.
The four-time MVP (including each of the last three seasons) has a career .283 batting average with 293 homers and 709 RBIs across 1,081 games with the Los Angeles Angels (2018-23) and Dodgers (2024-26).

Canada rally for draw vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina in home World Cup opener
June 12, 2026; Toronto, Canada; Canada’s Cyle Larin celebrates scoring their first goal with teammates as Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Tarik Muharemovic looks dejected. Mandatory Credit: Kevin Sousa-Imagn Images Cyle Larin scored in the 78th minute as Canada salvaged a 1-1 draw against Bosnia and Herzegovina in their opening match in Group B play Friday in Toronto.
Jovo Lukic scored in the 21st minute for Bosnia and Herzegovina, who were playing their first World Cup match since being eliminated from group play in the 2014 event at Brazil.
Maxime Crepeau had two saves for Canada, who entered the match with an 0-6-0 record in two World Cup appearances (1986, 2022).
Nikola Vasilj had one save for Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Switzerland and Qatar, who are also in Group B, open against each other on Saturday afternoon. Either team could move atop the group with a win after Canada and Bosnia and Herzegovina each secured one point.
Bosnia and Herzegovina took the lead off a left-footed corner kick from Ivan Basic, which he fired to the goal mouth.
Sead Kolasinac flicked a header on for the 6-foot-4 Lukic, who was checked from behind by a smaller defender as he headed his shot from 2 yards out for the first goal of his international career.
To that point, Bosnia and Herzegovina had controlled the play with their size and physicality. But as the match wore on, the quicker Canadiens appeared better suited to the heat.
Canada had the better of the play for the rest of the first half but had difficulty putting shots on frame and creating quality chances.
Early in the second half, both teams had excellent chances to score. Canada’s opportunity came first as Stephen Eustaquio fed Richie Laryea, who was free on the left side of the box.
Laryea’s right-footed shot beat a diving Vasilj, but Bosnia and Herzegovina defender Kolasinac kicked the ball in desperation. It went off the crossbar and caromed high to safety.
Less than a minute later, Ermedin Demirovic broke free and ran down a throughball, but Crepeau bolted from the goal area and disrupted Demirovic’s attempt with an aggressive slide.
Canada got the equalizer as Promise David flicked a pass forward to Larin, who was just inside the middle of the box.
Larin, who had been subbed on just two minutes earlier, spun and fired a right-footed blast into the lower-right corner.
In the final minute of stoppage time, Canada got one last try as Laryea found Larin in the middle of the box but as he shot, defender Tarik Muharemovic smothered the attempt and cleared it from the box.
