ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Aaron Nola tied a career-high with 12 strikeouts and beat former teammate Zach Eflin as the Philadelphia Phillies won their 10th consecutive road game, 3-1 over the AL-leading Tampa Bay Rays. It’s the Phillies’ longest winning streak away from home since the 1976 club won a franchise-best 13 straight. Nola (8-6) allowed one run and five hits over 7 1/3 innings. The last batter he faced, Wander Franco, homered. Craig Kimbrel worked the ninth and recorded his 13th save in 13 chances. Eflin (9-4) making his first start against his old team, gave up two runs, four hits and struck out nine in seven innings.
