The Phillies entered the Tigers series on a hot note, snapping a loss with a 0‑1 win over the Reds on July 9. That victory pushed them to a 52‑42 record, keeping them in fifth place in the NL and giving them a one‑game winning streak. Pitcher Zack Wheeler is slated to start, and his recent ERA of 2.85 could be a game‑changer against Detroit’s lineup.
Detroit will likely counter with left‑hander Jack Flaherty, who has been dominant this season, posting a 3.12 ERA. The duel between Wheeler and Flaherty promises a low‑scoring affair, but the Phillies’ offense, led by Bryce Harper’s 28th homer of the year, could break through in the middle innings. Keep an eye on Harper’s at‑bats; his power swing has already produced 85 RBIs.
For Philadelphia, a win keeps them within striking distance of the NL East lead and adds momentum heading into the final stretch. Detroit, meanwhile, hopes to climb out of the bottom of the AL Central; a victory would improve their record to 45‑48 and give them a morale boost.
