Phillies ride Matt Vierling’s 5-for-5 night to end five-game losing streak in 10 innings, 4-3

PHILADELPHIA -- A big reason — perhaps the biggest reason — why the Phillies are within reach of meaningful baseball in October is because of their depth. Unsung heroes have stepped up in the unlikeliest of moments, and it’s happened all season long. Rookie shortstop Bryson Stott, five-foot-ten backup catcher…

Phillies, Aaron Nola can’t overcome Ronald Acuña’s big day at the plate

ATLANTA — One could make the argument that Ronald Acuña Jr. single-handedly delivered a 4-3 loss to the Phillies on Saturday night. He gave the Braves a 2-0 lead with a first-pitch home run off of Aaron Nola in the bottom of the third, and then tacked on two more…

Aaron Nola blanks Marlins, 4-0, as Phillies sweep series heading into All-Star break

MIAMI — Expectations weren’t terribly high for Aaron Nola this season. He was coming off of a 2021 in which he’d posted a 4.63 ERA, the second highest mark of his career. His 2018 All-Star campaign, when he went 17-6 with a 2.37 ERA and 224 strikeouts, felt like a…

Phillies’ win streak snapped by Diamondbacks, 13-1

Phillies win 9th straight as Thomson’s magical run continues

PHILADELPHIA — Matt Vierling hadn’t played second base in a game before. Not in high school. Not in Little League. Never. But there he was, playing second base for nine innings of a major league game Saturday.

PHILADELPHIA — Phillies right-handed pitcher Aaron Nola, making his fifth consecutive opening-day start, looked incredibly efficient with a 6-1 lead over the Oakland Athletics through six innings on Friday.
