Ranger Suárez stuck out 10 over seven innings and improved to 9-0 to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to their MLB-best 35th win, a 5-2 victory over the defending World Series champion Texas Rangers on Tuesday night. Suárez's season-opening run rivals Hall of Famers Grover Alexander and Juan Marichal among the best in baseball history. Bryce Harper hit his 11th homer of the season to help the Phillies win for the ninth time in 11 games and continue one of the best starts in franchise history.
Starting pitching has set the tone all season, but the Phillies are 27-1 when leading after six innings because of a deep and talented bullpen that has excelled in May.
The Phillies had to lean on their bullpen following Taijuan Walker's 4th inning exit, resulting in an 11 inning loss Thursday night.
