Drew Ellis hit two home runs and Kyle Schwarber belted a pair of three-run blasts as the Philadelphia Phillies topped the host Washington Nationals 11-3 on Sunday afternoon.

Schwarber drove in six runs from the leadoff spot in the batting order and pushed his home run total to 15 for the season. J.T. Realmuto also homered to help the Phillies win for the second game in a row after a five-game losing streak.

Ellis, playing in his fourth major league game of the season and batting in the No. 9 spot, went 3-for-3 with two walks, three RBIs and four runs. Nick Castellanos also had three hits, helping Philadelphia to a double-figure run total for the fourth time this season.

Ranger Suarez gave the Phillies a strong outing as the starting pitcher, logging seven innings and allowing one run on eight hits. He struck out three and walked one.

Suarez (1-2) notched his first regular-season victory since last September, though he recorded two postseason wins for Philadelphia last fall.

Nationals starter Trevor Williams (2-4) and reliever Andres Machado each gave up two home runs.

Ellis, who was 1-for-7 entering the game, hit a go-ahead solo homer in the fifth inning to break a 1-1 tie. His two-run shot in the seventh extended the margin to 8-1.

Realmuto homered for the second day in a row for the game's first run in the top of the second for Philadelphia.

A three-run blast by Schwarber in the sixth inning stretched the Phillies' lead to 5-1. Schwarber was the first batter Machado faced.

Brandon Marsh had a sacrifice fly for the Phillies.

Washington scored on Stone Garrett's fourth-inning sacrifice fly for its only run until Ildemaro Vargas' two-run homer in the ninth. Vargas, Dominic Smith, Riley Adams and Alex Call each had two hits for the Nationals, who have lost five of their last seven games.

Williams gave up four runs in 5 2/3 innings with four walks and six strikeouts.
