WASHINGTON (AP) — Derek Hill hit a two-out, two-run pinch home run in the ninth inning to lift the Philadelphia Phillies past the Washington Nationals, 5-4 on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

The comeback came a night after the Phillies had an eight-run ninth inning in a 14-9 victory over the Nationals.<\/p>\n

Major league homers leader Kyle Schwarber, out of the starting lineup with lower back tightness, pinch hit with two outs and walked against Orlando Ribalta. Left-hander Richard Lovelady (2-4) came on and Hill pinch hit for Justin Crawford and homered to right center on a 1-2 pitch.<\/p>\n

Brandon Marsh had three hits for the Phillies. He is 7 for 13 with two homers, three RBIs and four runs in the series.<\/p>\n

Seth Johnson (1-0) pitched a scoreless eighth inning for the victory, and Jhoan Duran struck out the side in the ninth for his 19th save.<\/p>\n

Curtis Mead smacked a pinch two-run homer to give Washington a 4-3 lead in the sixth. Luis Garica Jr. and Jorbit Vivas also homered for the Nationals. Garcia homered in this third consecutive game and Vivas connected in his second straight.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia took a 3-2 lead in the fourth, with runs scoring on Bryson Stott’s double, J.T. Realmuto’s sacrifice fly and a single by Gabriel Rincones, Jr.<\/p>\n

Phillies starter Aaron Nola gave up two runs on three hits in five innings.<\/p>\n

Opener Carson Palmquist, recalled from Triple-A Rochester, gave up a run on two hits in 3 1\/3 innings in his Nationals debut. He was acquired from the Rockies in exchange for cash on May 25.<\/p>\n

Miles Mikolas gave up two unearned runs on five hits in 3 1\/3 innings for the Nationals.<\/p>\n
