Ranger Suarez was unable to complete six innings for the sixth straight start as the Phillies lost the opening game of an important series in Milwaukee.

Taijuan Walker will start for the Phillies on Thursday at Citi Field, three weeks after being removed from the rotation.

The Phillies finished off the Mets Sunday in dramatic fashion to end another hugely successful homestand and come a step closer to the top playoff seed.

For the next three nights, it’s the Brewers standing directly between the Phillies and achieving the first significant team objective they had when they first gathered in Clearwater in February.

In Sunday’s series finale against the Mets, Cristopher Sanchez turned in one of his best performances of the season to help the Phillies to a 2-1 win.

Prior to Sunday’s series finale against the Mets, the Phillies reinstated Alec Bohm from the injured list.

Four nights ago, he called it the biggest at-bat of his life. This was the biggest game of his life. Cal Stevenson delivered his second late game-winner of the week, then promptly robbed a homer to lead the Phillies to victory.

After going 113 consecutive at bats without a home run, the second-longest drought of his career, Bryce Harper went yard twice in Saturday’s 6-4 win over the Mets.

Larry Bowa and Charlie Manuel know a thing or two about the importance of having momentum going into the postseason.

Phillies’ starting pitcher Aaron Nola had a strong start on the mound Friday night but things changed in the blink of an eye eventually giving up 6 earned runs in the 11-3 loss vs. Mets.

With the NL East race drawing closer and closer, the Phillies’ division lead was reduced to just 7 games over the Mets following Friday night’s 11-3 loss at Citizens Bank Park.

He wasn’t in the starting lineup Wednesday when he showed up to the ballpark, yet a few hours later Weston Wilson delivered for the Phillies with a dribbler down the third-base line that won them a game and completed a sweep.

Initially in the lineup Wednesday, Kyle Schwarber was scratched by the Phillies the night after suffering an elbow injury on a dive back to first base.
