Called Out: Phillies Lose To Mets 6-3, Falling To 1-6 Vs Ny

The Phillies have lost 18 of their last 23 games against the Mets, going 1-6 this year. Severino Gonzalez, in the Phillies' rotation following injuries to Chad Billingsley and David Buchanan, struck out a career-high eight in 4 1/3 innings — including six in a row. Daniel Murphy led off the sixth with a single off Elvis Araujo (1-1), De Fratus walked Michael Cuddyer and Flores homered off the original 16-foot left-field wall, over the 8-foot blue fence erected in front of it for the 2012 season. Utley hit a two-run single in the third and Howard had a bases-loaded sacrifice fly in the fifth, a ball Juan Lagares caught on the warning track in center. Galvis stepped on the plate when he bunted for a single in the fifth — a hitter should be called out if he does that — but umpires told Mets manager Terry Collins the play was not subject to video review. When Jeff Francoeur struck out with two outs in the ninth but reached first on a throwing error by Recker, Collins wanted to claim the throw beat Francoeur, but umpires said Collins waited too long to request a review. Williams allowed five runs — four earned — and 10 hits over five innings in an April 15 loss at Citi Field.
