Phillies Defeat Dodgers in Rollins’ Return

An energetic crowd was on hand Tuesday night at Citizens Bank Park as former Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins made his return since being traded to the Los Angels Dodgers, and neither he nor the Phillies would disappoint. Rollins went 2-for-5 with a double batting out of the leadoff spot after receiving an extended standing ovation as he strolled to the plate leading off the first, but it was Maikel Franco who threw the trump card with a grand slam in the bottom of the seventh that snapped a 1-1 tie and carried the Phillies to an emotional 6-2 win.
