April 25
The Phillies alternated losses and wins, finishing the week 3-4, and now are 12-7 overall. We made a minor trade to shore up the bullpen, acquiring reliever Randy St. Claire in exchange for a minor leaguer.
April 18: Dodgers 5, Phillies 1. Ramon Martinez held the Phillies to a single run over eight innings to get the win. Tim Wallach picked up two extra-base hits off Tommy Greene, who took the loss.
April 19: Phillies 6, Dodgers 3. A trio of two-run innings helps the Phillies to victory. Darren Daulton walked three times and scored three runs. Ben Revere pitched six innings for the win, and Larry Andersen, David West and Doug Jones threw scoreless frames to close it out.
April 20: Giants 8, Phillies 6. Starters Jeff Juden and John Burkett were both chased early, with the Giants knotting it at six apiece in the fourth. With the bullpen exhausted, Barry Bonds hit his league-leading ninth home run of the season in the eighth inning off Toby Borland to lead the Giants to the win.
April 21: Phillies 8, Giants 4. Curt Schilling pitched eight innings and hit a home run himself en route to the victory. Kevin Stocker and Ricky Jordan both homered as well as the Phillies doubled up the Giants.
April 22: Padres 3, Phillies 1. Danny Jackson was effective, allowing two unearned runs over seven innings, but the offense could only put up one run off Padres starter Scott Sanders. First baseman Eddie Williams had three hits for San Diego.
April 23: Phillies 5, Padres 2. Darren Daulton and Lenny Dykstra each had three hits, with Daulton hitting his sixth home run of the season. Tommy Greene went seven innings for the win, and West and Jones finished things up.
April 24: Padres 14, Phillies 4. The Phillies played their worst game of the season, committing five errors, allowing eight walks and two wild pitches, and hitting a batter. Ben Rivera, Borland and St. Claire were the main offenders.
