The Phillies dropped a tough one to the Royals on Sunday, falling 10-3 in a game that saw more struggles from Aaron Nola. The right-hander gave up six runs, including two home runs, continuing a stretch of inconsistent outings.

Offensively, the Phillies couldn’t get much going either. They managed just five hits as Royals lefty Noah Cameron kept them off balance all afternoon.

Despite the loss, Philadelphia still clinched a playoff spot thanks to the Dodgers’ win over the Giants. Phillies now face the Dodgers next for a crucial series.
