The Phillies sent the Yankees to their seventh loss in 10 games following a five-game winning streak July 6-11. Philadelphia also earned the win after the Yankees held Aaron Judge out of the lineup because of a right elbow injury.
Harper tagged New York's Marcus Stroman (2-2) for a 425-foot drive into the right-center field seats with two outs after the right-hander struck out Trea Turner and Schwarber.
Schwarber followed up his second two-homer game this season with a double during a four-run seventh off Allan Winans. Schwarber's hit gave the Phillies a 9-1 lead and occurred after Chisholm booted a grounder by Turner for New York's 10th error in its past five games.
Turner opened the game with a ground rule double and scored three batters later on an RBI single by J.T. Realmuto, who hit the tiebreaking three-run homer in the seventh off Luke Weaver Friday.
Turner drove in a run with a ground ball to shortstop in the fourth when the Phillies drew four walks. The shortstop added an RBI double in the sixth off Yerry de Los Santos for a 5-1 lead before reaching on Chisholm's misplay.
Edmundo Sosa blasted a two-run homer in the seventh off as the Phillies totaled 13 hits, giving them 27 in the series. Sosa exited with a back contusion after the seventh following a collision with left fielder Brandon Marsh while fielding a pop up by Chisholm.
Philadelphia's Ranger Suarez bounced back from Sunday's rough outing against the Los Angeles Angels and held the Yankees to one run on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings. The left-hander tied a season-high with eight strikeouts, walked one and threw 108 pitches.
Jasson Dominguez had an RBI single in the fourth off Suarez, who held Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton hitless in eight at-bats. Ben Rice scored on a balk in the eighth before Alan Rangel struck out Goldschmidt.
Stanton hit a two-run homer in the seventh for the Yankees, who are getting outscored 55-38 since the All-Star break.
Stroman endured the worst of his five starts since returning from a left knee injury. The right-hander allowed four runs on five hits in 3 2/3 innings.

Durand Cup 2025: Liston Colaco Nets Brace As 10-Man Mohun Bagan SG Beat Mohammedan SC 3-1

Last Updated: Listion Colaco scored two and assisted the third as 10-man Mohun Bagan Super Giant defeated Mohammedan Sporting Club 3-1 in the 134th Durand Cup. Mohun Bagan Super Giant defeated Mohammedan Sporting Club 3-1 despite going down to 10 men in their group B game of the 134th edition of the Durand Cup at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata on Thursday. Liston Colaco scored two goals and assisted the third, which Suhail Ahmad Bhat converted as the Mariners beat the Black Panthers. The all-Indian affair did get off to a timid start as the Indian coaches at the touchline looked on. It soon turned tense as either crossbar was rattled. Mohammedan's Ashley Alban Koli and Mohun Bagan's Suhail Ahmad Bhat were the culprits just after the 10-minute mark. Vishal Kaith too had a scare soon after a shot from Sajal Bag, but Dippendu Biswas did well to calm things at the back. The moment of magic arrived in the 23rd minute. Liston Colaco weaved through the defenders before being chopped down by Joseph Lalmuanawma at the edge of the penalty box. The referee blew his whistle as the new number 7 got up and took the ball. He paused as Anirudh Thapa seemed to hover over the free-kick. But it was Liston who struck, and the ball sailed over the five-man wall and into the top corner. The Mariners drew blood first. With the half trickling to a close, the game came to life when Tangva Ragui went for the same ball as Apuia but ended up being a tad late. The Mohun Bagan star midfielder reacted by head-butting his opposite number as a melee broke out in the middle of the pitch. The referee had no choice but to Either team was left furious by what transpired. Dippendu made his frustrations show soon after the play resumed, earning another yellow card. The game that had started with much courtesy saw the first half end in bad blood. Mehrajuddin Wadoo opted for a single change at the restart. A defender off and another attacker on. The result was almost immediate. With three at the back end and more players up front, Mohammedan went for the kill. In the 50th minute, Lalthankima took a chance at goal with a vicious strike from distance. Kaith somehow managed to parry the effort, but the ball bounced in front of Ashley, who did not make any mistake, slotting the ball calmly into the back of the net. Kaith had more to worry about when Sajal Bag's long-range strike almost caught the Mohun Bagan keeper off-guard. As the loose ball bounced in front, he jumped at it to collect, but ended up in a crash. The physio came on as the play was halted with the keeper struck on the head. It was Mohun Bagan who scored against the run of play. Liston's magical run saw him draw the defenders away, only for him to backheel the ball into the path of Suhail. The forward's first shot was saved heroically by Subhajit Bhattacharjee, but Suhail's second attempt flew into the back of the net in the 63rd. Despite being a man down, Mohun Bagan assistant coach Bastab Roy did not make any changes to his starting XI as Mehrajuddin brought on more fresh legs as the clock ticked over the 80-minute mark. And yet, the Mariners kept the Black Panthers at bay. That too for over half of the game. In the 90th minute, Kaith made a match-winning save as he came out of his lines to thwart Bamiya Samad after he was slipped in behind by Maharabam Maxion. The Mohun Bagan keeper's leg got the telling touch that kept his side's lead intact. In the added minute of injuries, Liston was brought down inside the penalty box while trying to receive a pass from Thapa. Pukhrambam Dinesh Meitie received a yellow card for his challenge. The star winger stepped up and slotted the ball calmly into the back of the net for the Mariners to get a comprehensive 3-1 victory.

Eugenio Suarez trade: Mariners set to reunite with power-hitting third baseman from Diamondbacks

The Seattle Mariners have made a bold move ahead of the 2025 MLB trade deadline, bringing back Arizona Diamondbacks' third baseman Eugenio Suarez. The deal reunites Suarez with the team where he became a beloved figure and clubhouse leader during his 2022-23 tenure. In exchange for Eugenio Suarez, the Diamondbacks received first baseman Tyler Locklear, Seattle's No. 9 prospect, along with minor league pitchers Hunter Cranton (No. 16) and Juan Burgos (No. 17). Suarez, a two-time All-Star, has been a power-hitting standout, with 36 home runs and 87 RBIs in the 2025 season, tying for the MLB lead in RBIs. His impressive performance since June 2024, slashing .311/.359/.607, makes him a valuable addition to a Mariners offense struggling with a league-worst .615 OPS since the All-Star break. The 34-year-old remains one of baseball's premier power hitters, with 60 home runs since June 25, 2024, trailing only Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani. His ability to hit against both left- and right-handed pitching, combined with his leadership, makes him an ideal fit for a Mariners team aiming to end their World Series drought. While his defensive metrics have dipped slightly (-6 outs above average in 2025), his offensive output and prior defensive reliability (+11 OAA in 2023) add significant value. The Mariners are tied with the Texas Rangers at 57-52 for the final AL Wild Card spot. They will be counting on Suarez to boost their offense alongside stars like Cal Raleigh, Julio Rodriguez, and recent acquisition Josh Naylor. The trade also reflects Seattle's regret over their 2023 decision to trade Suarez to Arizona to shed his $13 million salary, a move driven by payroll constraints. For the Diamondbacks, the trade aligns with their shift to selling at the deadline after a sweep by the Houston Astros left them 5.5 games back in the NL Wild Card race. Acquiring Locklear and two promising pitchers provides young talent for their roster, especially crucial with pitching injuries, including Corbin Burnes' Tommy John surgery and uncertainties around Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly.

Messi's last-second assist helps Inter Miami edge Atlas 2-1 in Leagues Cup

Lionel Messi had two assists, including one in the final seconds of the match, to help lift Inter Miami over Atlas 2-1 in their Leagues Cup opener. It was Messi's first game since he and teammate Jordi Alba were suspended one match by Major League Soccer for skipping its All-Star game. He connected with Marcelo Weigandt for the winning score in the final minute of stoppage time. It's a competition that we always do well in, Messi said in Spanish during a post-match interview with Apple TV. I think we did a great job against a great team. Messi also assisted on Telasco Segovia's goal that opened scoring. He received a through ball from Sergio Busquets and sent it to Segovia for an easy finish in the 58th. Rivaldo Lozano scored the equalizer for the Guadalajara club in the 80th minute before Weigandt's goal in the 96th that had to be confirmed by VAR after he was originally ruled offside. That meant five assists in July for Messi, who was named the Major League Soccer Player of the Month after netting eight goals and helping Miami go 4-1-1 in league play. Both sides had their chances during a chippy first half that saw a brief heated exchange between Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano and Atlas coach Gonzalo Pineda after an Atlas player went down. It's just a soccer situation, Pineda said through an interpreter, adding that he was upset when play continued. I was protesting that play. I told him (Mascherano) that it was nothing against him, just a soccer play. We talked about it in the dressing room, nothing beyond that. Miami goalkeeper Rocco Ros Novo had three saves in the first half, including one in which he slid over to deny Eduardo Aguirre on a header to the back post. Luis Surez blasted a shot off the crossbar on the final play of the first half. Argentine midfielder Rodrigo De Paul made his Inter Miami debut. De Paul, Messi's national team buddy, officially signed with the club last week. After Weigandt's goal was confirmed, fireworks erupted at Chase Stadium. Messi pumped his fist in celebration as he embraced De Paul and Surez. Pineda said he was surprised to see Messi so happy to win the match, given how many high-stakes games the 38-year-old has played in. He's won so much," Pineda said. "He's usually quite (even-keeled) in general. Mascherano said the celebrations were a response to winning a tense match. We play to win, Mascherano said through an interpreter. That's what this beautiful sport is about. ... The way that we celebrated is probably just a way to vent how we felt at the time. We won a game that we didn't play brilliantly, and at the final second, in an epic way, we were able to win it.
