The weekend was historic for all the wrong reasons. It was the first time in MLB history a team was swept and scored only one run on a homer from a pitcher.
The Phillies scored 1 run while being swept in a 3-game series by the Giants. It came on a Jake Arrieta HR.
According to @EliasSports, it's the 1st time in MLB history that a team scored only 1 run while being swept, with that run coming courtesy of a HR by a pitcher.
