Luzardo fans 11, Turner hits go-ahead RBI double as Phillies edge Rockies 2-1
DENVER (AP) --- Trea Turner hit a go-ahead RBI double in the fifth inning and
the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Colorado Rockies 2-1 on Saturday.
Turner finished with two hits, and Kyle Schwarber added an RBI double in the
first inning.
Jess Luzardo (1-1) allowed one run on five hits over 6 2/3 innings while
striking out 11 and walking none in a strong bounce-back outing after a rough
start to the season. Chase Dollander (1-1) took the loss in relief after
allowing one run on four hits in 4 1/3 innings.
Turner worked a leadoff walk and scored when Schwarber lined a double to left
field to give Philadelphia a 1-0 lead in the first.
Colorado tied the game in the third as Troy Johnston singled, advanced to
second on a wild pitch, and scored on Brett Sullivan's RBI single to right.
Brandon Marsh singled and was advanced by J.T. Realmuto and Justin Crawford
before Turner doubled to left field to put the Phillies up 2-1.
Crawford later stole second base for the first stolen base of his major league
career.
The Phillies' bullpen preserved the lead late. Jos Alvarado recorded the final
out of the seventh while Brad Keller pitched a scoreless eighth. Jhoan Duran
worked a perfect ninth for his third save of the year.
Up next
RHP Taijuan Walker (0-1, 11.57 ERA) gets the start for the Phillies, while RHP

of the series.
