PHILADELPHIA — Kyle Schwarber went deep, Bryce Harper went off on an umpire and was ejected and Trea Turner went from second to home on a stolen base but the Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 on Thursday night. Schwarber launched his 46th homer of the season, which matched last year's total when he led the National League, into the second deck for a 1-0 lead in the first. Turner stole third base in the eighth and came around to score on a wild throw by catcher Jason Delay that made it 3-2. Harper was ejected when he argued a called check swing on strike three.
