Schwarber, Castellanos power Phillies to 12-5 win, dropping Yankees 5 1/2 games back of Blue Jays
Schwarber's tying drive in the fifth off Will Warren was his 1,000th hit and 319th homer, the most for a player reaching 1,000 — eight more than Mark McGwire. Trea Turner had his fourth four-hit game this year, including a triple, and walked for the Phillies, who scored 10 runs in the last three innings.
Cody Bellinger, Austin Wells, Giancarlo Stanton and Anthony Volpe hit solo homers for the Yankees, who wasted 2-0 and 3-2 leads in dropping a season-high 5 1/2 games behind AL East-leading Toronto. New York led by seven games in late May but has gone 21-27 since. The Yankees have made 14 errors in July while allowing 32 homers.
After Realmuto's homer built a 6-3 lead in a four-run seventh and the Yankees closed within a run in the bottom half. Schwarber connected off Ian Hamilton in the eighth for his 36th homer and 33rd multi-homer game. Schwarber has six homers in seven games since winning the All-Star Game swing-off.
New York led 3-2 when Turner singled on a sinking liner off Tim Hill (3-3) starting the seventh that right fielder Aaron Judge trapped. Schwarber singled and Luke Weaver relieved with one out.
Nick Castellanos grounded sharply between first and second, where first baseman Paul Goldschmidt ranged to pick it up where the infield grass met the first. The four-time Gold Glove winner made an off-balance throw that sailed to the backstop as Turner scored on the infield single, Schwarber reached third and Castellanos took second.
Realmuto drove a changeup into the left-field seats for a 6-3 lead, the seventh homer off Weaver in his last 15 outings. Realmuto has gone deep in consecutive games following a 42-game homerless streak.
Tanner Banks (3-2) got the final out of the sixth.
Key moment
Judge coming up short on Turner's liner.
Key stat
New York has 54 errors this season. Warren threw away a potential double-play grounder.

Portugal star Joao Felix teams up with Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia with Al Nassr
Associated Press MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Joao Felix took his total transfer cost to around $260 million Tuesday when completing his latest move — this time to Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. The Portugal forward has teamed up with compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo, joining from Chelsea for a reported initial fee of 30 million euros ($34.6 million) and signing a two-year contract. 'I'm here to spread joy. Let's win together,' Felix said in a video announcing his arrival, shared on Al Nassr's social media channels. He is the latest star player from Europe to move to Saudi Arabia as part of the kingdom's bid to become a major force in soccer. But his transfer from Club World Cup winner Chelsea is the latest in a long line of moves for a player who holds the record for the fourth most expensive signing in history, but has failed to live up to the expectations placed on him so early in his career. Still only 25, Felix has time to hit the heights he seemed destined for when joining Spanish giant Atletico Madrid from Benfica for $140 million in 2019. But his career has stalled since then with a series of loans to top teams including Chelsea, Barcelona and most recently AC Milan failing to see him establish himself among the very elite. According transfer date website Transfermarkt, Felix is behind only Neymar (222 million euros ($256 million)), Kylian Mbappe (180m euros ($208 million)) and Philippe Coutinho and Ousmane Dembele (both 135m euros ($155.8 million)) on the list of highest transfer fees in soccer. His value has dropped significantly — joining Chelsea for a reported $60 million last year, with his fee almost halving again to join Al Nassr. The move to Saudi Arabia is not guaranteed to reignite his career. While some have flourished, including the likes of Ronaldo and Aleksandar Mitrovic, Neymar left after an injury-disrupted time at Al-Hilal and Jordan Henderson and Jhon Duran only stayed for months before moving on. Al Nassr will hope Felix's arrival will see it win the title it has been waiting for since signing Ronaldo in a spectacular move late in 2022. While the Portugal great has helped raise the profile of Saudi Arabian soccer and continued to score at a prolific rate, he has had to watch rivals Al Ittihad (twice) and Al-Hilal crowned champion during his time in the league. ___ James Robson is at ___ AP soccer: in this topic

Sixers' Tyrese Maxey works out with Lakers superstar LeBron James
Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey is always looking to take the next step to become a better player in this league in an effort to win a title. The 5-year guard has already been named an All-Star, but has yet to get past Round 2 in the playoffs as he looks to lead the Sixers deep into the playoffs. Maxey is a maniacal worker who always uses the offseason to get 1% better and take another step in his career. He has spent this 2025 offseason working out with Memphis Grizzlies guard, and 2-time NBA champ, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and he is now working out with a legend, and somebody he works out with regularly, Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James. Trainer Chris Johnson posted a photo on his Instagram of James and Maxey after finishing up a workout. This isn't much of a surprise to see James and Maxey working out as they have done so in the past and do so often. It just shows how badly Maxey wants to take that next step in his career as he prepares for his sixth season.
