Eflin finished the night after six innings, surrendering two earned runs on seven hits. He walked three and struck out a pair.
The Phillies collected just five hits in the contest with Cesar Hernandez accounting for three of them. J.T. Realmuto provided a two-run shot in the seventh that gave the Phillies their only runs of the contest.
Bryce Harper worked a walk in the loss to extend his on-base streak to all 18 games this season.
Quinn up, Herrera down
Roman Quinn joined the Phillies yesterday after completing a rehab stint to come back from an oblique strain. To make room, the club placed Odubel Herrera on the 10-day injured list with a strained hamstring. Quinn appeared in 50 games for Philadelphia last season, slashing .267/.324/.420 with two homers and 10 stolen bases during that stretch.
