PHILADELPHIA — It belongs to DJ Bombi, also known as Adolis García. The Phillies right fielder has brought his musical talents into the clubhouse as their DJ this year. And now, when a Phillies player celebrates a big hit on the bases, he often looks toward the dugout and mimes a DJ spinning a record.

There haven’t been many occasions for the Phillies to celebrate so far this season. But there certainly were on Thursday night, when the Phillies completed the sweep of the Giants by taking both games of the doubleheader. And in the back-and-forth second game, it was DJ Bombi himself who scored the winning run in the 10th to beat the Giants, 6-5.

When Alec Bohm hit a walk-off sacrifice fly to deep center field, allowing ghost-running García to score from third, he didn’t even have time for the DJ celebration. Bohm was too busy chucking his helmet and being mobbed by his teammates.

He was a main reason the Phillies were even in position to walk off San Francisco. Bohm made a diving grab at third base to rob Luis Arráez, helping pitcher Chase Shugart strand the go-ahead run in the top of the 10th.

The second game of Thursday’s doubleheader was a bullpen game. Tim Mayza made his first career start as the opener, pitching two scoreless innings. In addition to Shughart, Nolan Hoffman, Jonathan Bowlan, Trevor Richards, Brad Keller and José Alvarado also made appearances.

Back-to-back homers from Trea Turner and Schwarber in the first inning off Giants righty Adrian Houser gave the Phillies relievers an early 2-0 lead to work with. San Francisco chipped away at the lead with runs against Hoffman and Bowlan, scoring both on sacrifice flies to left field, where Schwarber was starting to give Brandon Marsh the afternoon off.

A two-out rally in the fifth gave the Phillies back the lead temporarily. Turner singled, Schwarber doubled — managing to swim around the tag at second — and Bryce Harper drew a four-pitch walk to bring up García. He worked a six-pitch at-bat and punched a two-run single to left field for a 4-2 lead.

The sixth inning was interrupted by a 24-minute rain delay, but when play resumed, the Giants tied the game, 4-4. San Francisco loaded the bases against Richards with two walks and a double, and cashed in two runs with a single to right.

The Giants took the lead in the top of the ninth. Keller struck out Arráez but then hit Casey Schmitt with a pitch, and interim manager Don Mattingly opted to bring in Alvarado to face Rafael Devers.

The move didn’t work out, as Devers singled to right. Jung Hoo Lee later singled as well, allowing Schmitt to score.

Shugart pitched the 10th. He ran into trouble early by allowing a leadoff single to center, but ghost-running Drew Gilbert held up at third instead of testing Justin Crawford’s arm. Shugart struck out Matt Chapman, Bohm made a diving grab at third base to rob Arráez, and Schmitt flew out to leave the go-ahead run at third.
