When Phillips launched a solo home run off the Pirates’ Gerrit Cole, he became the 48th player and just the sixth second baseman in MLB history with 200 home runs and 200 stolen bases. He recorded his 200th stolen base earlier this season.

Phillips is hitting .296 with three home runs and 13 RBI in 38 games for the Braves.
