The Phillies might have been watching their future on Monday night. Luis Robert Jr. hit a Cristopher Sánchez changeup just over the right-field wall at Rate Field for a two-run homer in the fourth inning of the Phillies’ 6-2 loss to the White Sox.

The Philadelphia Phillies are trying to separate themselves from the New York Mets, and they are reportedly entering the race for Eugenio Suárez.

Arizona Diamondbacks All-Star third baseman Eugenio Suárez left Monday's game against the Detroit Tigers after being hit on the hand by a pitch, but he appeared to escape serious injury. After the game, Suárez told reporters that X-rays on his left index finger were negative.

Sánchez allowed two-run homers in the third and fourth innings, one of them coming from Chicago's Luis Robert Jr., a potential trade deadline target.
