Alec Bohm hit a three-run double for the Phillies, who snapped a four-game skid and finished 3-6 on their homestand against the Mets, Dodgers and Yankees. Ben Rice homered and doubled for New York. Snchez (13-4) gave up three runs and six hits. He struck out six and walked three. Philadelphia jumped out to a 6-0 lead against Will Warren (7-5). Bohm's bases-loaded double that ended a nine-pitch at-bat made it 5-0 in the third. It became a six-run advantage when Bohm scored on Stott's single. Stott hit a solo homer in the second after Kyle Schwarber had a sacrifice fly in the first. After a throwing error on a pickoff attempt by Snchez helped New York score three times in the fifth, Philadelphia added five runs in the sixth, highlighted by Stott's three-run double off left-hander Ryan Yarbrough. Before the game, the Yankees placed All-Star outfielder Cody Bellinger on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain. Max Schuemann started in place of Bellinger in left field, batting seventh, and went 0 for 2 with a walk. Spencer Jones, called up from Triple-A to take Bellinger's roster spot, pinch hit for Schuemann in the eighth and walked. New York, also without injured slugger Aaron Judge, struck out 13 times. The Phillies improved to 43-16 when Snchez, Zack Wheeler or Jess Luzardo starts on the mound. They are 14-33 in all other games.

Up next Yankees: Open a four-game series at the Chicago White Sox on Monday night. New York LHP Max Fried (4-3, 2.97 ERA) opposes LHP Noah Schultz (3-7, 6.04). Phillies: Wheeler (10-2, 2.16) pitches Monday night in Miami against RHP Tyler Phillips (2-5, 3.52) to open a three-game set. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb
