导出博客文章PHILADELPHIA -- For the Philadelphia Phillies, its hittin season.Jerad Eickhoff
pitched neatly into the eighth inning, Odubel Herrera and Maikel Franco hit
two-run homers and the Phillies beat the Atlanta Braves 8-2 on Monday.After
struggling offensively much of the year, the Phillies have swung the bats better
than any team in baseball the past couple weeks. This is the time of the year
former manager Charlie Manuel likes to call hittin season.The Phillies have
double-digit hits in 10 of the last 13 games and lead the majors with a .321
batting average during that stretch. Their first eight hits against Joel De La
Cruz (0-2) went for extra bases.I cant complain about the hitting anymore,
manager Pete Mackanin said. The hitting continued and its great to see. When you
see a pitcher not pitching well, you have to take advantage of it.Eickhoff (6-9)
gave up two runs and five hits, striking out eight in 7 2/3 innings to win for
the fourth time in five decisions.I feel good mechanically and mentally,
Eickhoff said. Just try not to change anything.After sweeping three games in
Arizona and taking two of three from the defending World Series champion Royals,
the Phillies didnt let up against the worst team in the NL.They jumped on De La
Cruz in the second inning. Six extra-base hits led to a season-high seven runs
in the inning.Cameron Rupp and Tommy Joseph hit doubles. Cesar Hernandez ripped
an RBI triple. Herrera hit one out to deep right-center for his 10th homer.
After Peter Bourjos hit a double, Franco hit his 15th homer to left-center to
make it 7-1.I think confidence breeds success, Rupp said. Our confidence is
through the roof.Erick Aybar lined a solo shot out to right for a 1-0 lead in
the first. Aybar snapped a streak of 217 at-bats without a homer. He hadnt gone
deep since Oct. 3, 2015 for the Angels against the Rangers.De La Cruz allowed
seven runs -- four earned -- and nine hits in six innings in his second career
start.We had a tough inning. He had a tough inning, Braves manager Brian Snitker
said. He got the ball up a lot. Some balls got hit hard. But to his credit, he
got us through six innings.Eickhoff, who had the longest outing of his career,
hasnt given up more than three runs in seven straight starts. Hes lowered his
ERA from 4.07 to 3.30 in that span.Hes a bulldog, Mackanin said. He goes out
there to win and works extremely hard.STANDINGSThe Phillies (38-46) have won six
of seven. The Braves (28-55) have lost six of eight.STREAKINGBourjos extended
his hitting streak to a career-high 13 games. He has raised his average from
.278 from .217. ... Rupp has a 10-game hitting streak. ... Joseph snapped an
0-for-18 slump with his double. ... Hernandez is 20 for 40 since June 23,
raising his average from .248 to .286.GOOD COMPANYEickhoff has tossed 18 quality
starts in his first 25 starts in the majors to tie Hall of Famer Robin Roberts
and right-hander Art Mahaffey for most through the first 25 starts for the
Phillies since 1913. The last pitchers with as many quality starts in their
first 25 career games were Jacob deGrom (20) and Masahiro Tanaka (19).WE WANT A
HITA Phillies fan seated in the second deck behind home plate chanted We want a
hit incessantly during the second inning. The offense responded with three
doubles, a triple and two homers.UP NEXTRHP Mike Foltynewicz (2-2, 3.72) starts
for the Braves while RHP Zach Elfin (0-2, 5.75) goes for the Phillies.

Hopkins Jersey .C. -- Todd Fiddler scored a hat trick, including the
overtime goal, as the Prince George Cougars survived an 8-7 win against the
Kamloops Blazers in Western Hockey League play Sunday. Washington Redskins coach
Jay Gruden spent three years helping to develop Cincinnati Bengals quarterback
Andy DaltonNow he needs to beat him in a game critical for both teams playoff
chances when the Bengals host the Redskins at Wembley Stadium in London at 9:30
a.m. Sunday.Gruden, who served the Bengals offensive coordinator for three
seasons (2011-13) under head coach Marvin Lewis before coming to Washington, is
facing his former team for the first time.We did a lot of great things over
there, we thought, but come game time its going to be another game that we have
to win, Gruden said after Wednesdays practice. Theyre very well-coached, they
have a good football team. ... It will be a great test for us.The Redskins (4-3)
had won four straight before losing to Detroit in the final seconds Sunday and
trail the Cowboys (5-1) and Eagles (4-2) in the NFC East. After this Sunday,
theyll enjoy a bye before a brutal stretch of games in which they host Minnesota
and Green Bay before road games at Dallas, Arizona and Philadelphia.You always
have an understanding of the competition and where you are, Redskins quarterback
Kirk Cousins said. But at the same time, theres a lot of football left to be
played and its a boring cliche, but its always going to be one game at a time.
Thats the best way to approach it and see where we are at the end.The Bengals
(3-4), off a win over the Cleveland Browns, are tied for second in the AFC
North, only one game behind the Pittsburgh Steelers. They still have four games
remaining in the division as they look for a sixth straight playoff
berth.Washingtons biggest concern is their health as arguably their three best
players -- tight end Jordan Reed (concussion), left tackle Trent Williams
(knee), and cornerback Josh Norman (concussion, wrist) -- are on the injury
report.All three were limited in practice Wednesday but could play Sunday. In
addition, running back Matt Jones (knee) did not practice and Gruden said Robert
Kelley will start if Jones cant play.The Redskins gained 417 yards against the
Lions but scored just 17 points. That was due in part to losing two fumbles, one
by Jones that Detroit recovered in their own end zone.The Redskins are averaging
4.8 yards per rushing attempt. They have rushed for more than 125 yards in each
of their last two games and will face the leagues 24th-ranked rushing
defense.ddddddddddddousins completed 30 of 38 passes against Detroit for 301
yards.They give you a full dose of everything, both run and pass, Lewis said. A
lot of different formations, lot of different route combinations and so
forth.The Bengals and Redskins rank fifth and sixth, respectively, in yards per
game but 23rd and 15th in points per game as they rank near the bottom in red
zone offense, both scoring touchdowns on just 42.9 percent of their trips inside
the 20.Cincinnati gained 559 yards against Cleveland. Dalton, the NFLs
seventh-rated passer (100.8), has six touchdowns and no picks in his last four
games, finishing with a passer rating above 100 in each.I think things have
changed, Dalton said when asked about the Redskins having the advantage of
Gruden knowing the Bengals offense. Weve got some new players -- obviously
theres still some guys that are still here from when he was here -- but I feel
like weve added a few guys. I think things have changed enough that Im not too
worried about that.Dalton is on a pace (4,720 yards) to shatter his team record
(4,293) for passing yards in a season.I see a lot of similarities between Kirk
and Andy, Lewis said. I think they both do an incredible job at the line of
scrimmage surveying the defense and getting in and out of the right plays. You
see the Redskins doing a lot of play changes at the line of scrimmage, which is
what Andy has been so good at for us here.The Redskins, perhaps minus Norman,
will have to find a way to stop A.J. Green, who leads the NFL with 50 catches
and has 775 yards and three touchdowns.Were going to have to change up the
coverages, figure out ways to beat him up a little bit at the line of scrimmage,
and play a safety over the top from time to time, play a third, play somebody
underneath him, and then play some man-to-man, Gruden said.Jeremy Hill, coming
off a nine-carry, 168-yard effort against the Browns, should find holes against
the Redskins 26th-ranked run defense.The Bengals lead the series 5-4. They won
the last meeting 38-31 in 2012 and havent lost to the Redskins since 1991,
winning three straight.
