Final
Orioles hit 8 HRs to rout Phillies
Jun 17, 2015 - 4:53 AM Baltimore, MD (SportsNetwork.com) - Manny Machado and Chris Parmelee each hit two home runs and the Baltimore Orioles finished with a franchise-record eight long balls in their 19-3 drubbing of the Philadelphia Phillies.Chris Davis, David Lough, Jimmy Paredes and Ryan Flaherty also went yard for Baltimore, which had previously hit seven home runs as a team three times. The most recent came in 2012 against Toronto.
"It was just one of those days where the ball was flying," Machado said. "We just have to keep it rolling."
Phillies starter Jerome Williams (3-7) recorded just two outs before leaving the game in the bottom of the first inning with a strained left hamstring. He gave up four hits, walked two and served up two wild pitches.
Machado set the tone with a no-doubter into the stands in left to lead off the game. A pair of walks sandwiched Paredes' fly out to center, and Parmelee singled to load the bases with one away. J.J. Hardy singled in Travis Snider, Flaherty plated two with his single to right and both players scored following a pair of wild pitches.
Dustin McGowan came on for Williams and struck out Lough to end the frame, but Machado and Paredes hit solo homers in the second against him and Parmelee launched a solo shot with two outs. Lough redeemed himself with a three-run shot to right in the third, and it was 12-0 before McGowan had recorded an out in the stanza.
Chris Tillman (5-7) had a quality start for the Orioles, yielding three runs on four hits over six innings.
The O's have been red hot of late to keep pace in a competitive AL East, winning 10 of 12. The Phillies, meanwhile, have been trending in the opposite direction. The worst team in the majors, Philly has lost eight in a row to fall to 3-18 over its last 21.
Their lone bright spot in this one came on Maikel Franco's sixth-inning, two- run homer to center. The young slugger has seven home runs in 30 games this season.
Baltimore scored at least one run in each of the first six innings and three runs or more four times. Phillies outfielder Jeff Francoeur pitched a 1-2-3 seventh inning, but he came back out for the eighth and on the very first pitch, Flaherty set the record with a solo shot to right-center. Paredes' sacrifice fly to the warning track in left produced Baltimore's final run.
"This was the worst road trip I've ever been on," Francoeur said of the team's 0-8 sojourn. "It will be good to get back home."
