Citizens Bank Park - Philadelphia, PA
87-71, 2nd Place, 6 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: The Phillies offense was 0 for 12 with runners in scoring position and left 10 runners on base in this frustrating 4-1 loss to the Brewers.
What It Means: The Phillies would keep losing and the Diamondbacks would keep winning, at least through Friday night.
What Happened: Aaron Nola had a more standard Nolaesque outing, allowing two solo home runs and a soft single in the third that plated two more runs. The Phillies scored their only run in the second. With the bases loaded, J.T. Realmuto grounded out to second, scoring Alec Bohm. Bryson Stott had two doubles in the game, and Tanner Banks pitched two scoreless innings of relief.

Featured Card: From @BoopStats on X, through Friday night's game, Realmuto is one of 12 Phillies non-pitchers to own a hitless steak of at least 32 at-bats. The list ahead of him includes John Vukovich, Steve Jeltz (33), Rhys Hoskins (33), Ryan Howard (35), Raul Ibanez (35), Desi Relaford (36) and Len Matuszek (36). Danny Murtaugh holds the Phillies all-time record with an 0 for 38 streak between the 1942 and 1943 seasons.
Field Report: What an awful game to view in person. In what could possibly be our final trip to the ballpark in 2026, especially given the recent state of the Phillies, Jenna and I enjoyed an Uncle Charlie's steak sandwich before the game. We settled into our seats in a mostly empty Section 315, enjoying the fall-like weather, but not enjoying the product on the field.
