Kyle Schwarber and Jesus Luzardo help the Phillies beat the White Sox 6-3
Brandon Marsh also hit a two-run drive for Philadelphia, which bounced back nicely after dropping the series opener on Monday night. Schwarber, Marsh and Trea Turner each had two hits.
The White Sox scored three times in the ninth against Daniel Robert. Colson Montgomery had a run-scoring groundout, and Lenyn Sosa connected for a two-run homer.
The Phillies grabbed control with four runs in the third against Jonathan Cannon (4-8).
Turner hit a leadoff double and scored on Schwarber's 441-foot shot to right field. Schwarber's 37th homer of the season had an exit velocity of 114.9 mph.
With two out and J.T. Realmuto aboard, Marsh hit a drive to right-center to give the Phillies a 6-0 lead. It was Marsh's fourth homer.
Key moment
The White Sox had the bases loaded with two out in the first, but Luzardo escaped the jam when Montgomery flied to center.
Key stat
Schwarber has seven homers and 17 RBIs in 11 games since the All-Star break.
Up next
Taijuan Walker (3-5, 3.84 ERA) starts for Philadelphia on Wednesday in the series finale. Adrian Houser (6-2, 2.10 ERA) is slated to go for Chicago, but that could change with the trade deadline looming on Thursday.

Cristopher Sánchez and Kyle Schwarber lead the Phillies past the Tigers 2-0
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Cristopher Sánchez pitched eight sparkling innings, Kyle Schwarber hit his 38th homer and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Detroit Tigers 2-0 on Sunday night.

Sánchez (10-3) surrendered five hits, struck out six and walked one. He allowed only one baserunner to reach third. Jhoan Duran handled the ninth for his second save with the Phillies and No. 18 overall. The hard-throwing closer, who was acquired in a trade with Minnesota on Wednesday, fanned Riley Greene with a 102.5 mph fastball for the final out.

Sánchez (10-3) surrendered five hits, struck out six and walked one. He allowed only one baserunner to reach third.

The hard-throwing closer, who was acquired in a trade with Minnesota on Wednesday, fanned Riley Greene with a 102.5 mph fastball for the final out. Schwarber made it 2-0 when he connected against Tyler Holton with two down in the eighth, hitting a 435-foot drive to center. Schwarber is tied with Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani for the NL lead in home runs. It was Schwarber's 15th homer this season off a lefty, which leads all of baseball and matches a career high for the slugger. Detroit wasted a sharp performance by Charlie Morton (7-9), who pitched six innings of one-run ball. The veteran right-hander was acquired in a trade with Baltimore on Thursday.
