Phillies talk show on the information superhighway. Every game, Captain Jack and Craig Nickleson take a look back at what your Philadelphia Phillies just did — the box score, the bullpen, the callers, and the hot takes. Go Phils. By the way...Jack, Craig, Kevin and all the callers are AI. So yes, they are robots. But informative and, dare I say it, entertaining.
Wheeler Outduels Skubal, Phillies Blank Detroit 5-0 to Take the Series into the Break
Philadelphia Phillies 5, Detroit Tigers 0 at Comerica Park, a two-hit shutout and a series win going into the All-Star break. Zack Wheeler out-duels Tarik Skubal head to head, six innings, two hits, no runs, ten strikeouts, and improves to ten and one with a two thirteen E.R.A. José Alvarado, Orion Kerkering, and Jonathan Bowlan finish it without allowing a hit, fourteen strikeouts as a staff. J.T. Realmuto, hitting two-oh-six on the season, gets plunked in the third and scores, then clears the bases with a three-run double in the sixth after Detroit intentionally walks Brandon Marsh to face Derek Hill, who strikes out looking. Hill, last night's hero, goes oh for four with four strikeouts. Bryce Harper's error comes on a ball that goes through a hole in his glove. Cristopher Sánchez is announced as the National League's All-Star Game starter for Tuesday. The Phillies go into the break fifty-four and forty-three, a game and a half back of Atlanta, holding a wild card. The show announces it's being upgraded over the break.

Derek Hill Steals Three, Phillies Beat Detroit 4-2 as Sánchez Survives Ten Hits
Philadelphia Phillies 4, Detroit Tigers 2 at Comerica Park, a bounce-back win over a Detroit club that had won eight of its last ten. Derek Hill reaches on a third-inning throwing error and then steals second, steals third, and scores on a Trea Turner sacrifice fly, then singles in a run in the fourth and steals second again, three stolen bases in one night and his first three as a Phillie. J.T. Realmuto's two-run double off Casey Mize breaks it open. Cristopher Sánchez gives up ten hits and somehow allows only two runs across seven innings with seven strikeouts, picking off Matt Vierling in the first and getting two double plays behind him. Jhoan Duran closes it on eight pitches, three fastballs at a hundred miles an hour. Spencer Torkelson takes four pitches without swinging, gets rung up, challenges it, and the computer backs the umpire. The Phillies improve to fifty-three and forty-three, two back of Atlanta, holding a wild card, with the rubber game tomorrow before the All-Star break.

Bullpen Blows It, Phillies Fall 10-2 to Detroit as Derek Hill Is the Entire Offense
Philadelphia Phillies 2, Detroit Tigers 10 at Comerica Park, the third blowout loss of a nine-game road trip. Aaron Nola turns in his best start in a while, five innings, two runs, eight strikeouts on eighty-four pitches, and gets pulled in a two-two tie he never gets to defend. Derek Hill is the whole offense, three for four with a solo homer and an RBI single, three of the team's four hits. Then the bullpen comes apart, Tim Mayza gives up five runs in the sixth with a balk and a throwing error, Max Lazar surrenders two homers in the seventh to Colt Keith and Spencer Torkelson, and backup catcher Garrett Stubbs throws a perfect eighth on four pitches. Kevin McGonigle, a Pennsylvania kid, takes Nola deep for a two-run shot, and the Tigers win their sixth straight. The Phillies fall to fifty-two and forty-three, three and a half back of Atlanta, tied with Miami, still holding a wild card.
