    Jhoan Duran is a difference maker. He showed the Phillies and Phillies fans exactly how much this weekend.He tossed a four-pitch save in Friday night's win over the Tigers. He tossed a 12-pitch save on Sunday night. He threw unhittable splinkers. He fired fastballs that touched 103.3 mph, making it the hardest pitch by any Phillies pitcher in the pitch-tracking era (since 2008). But probably ever, too.We talk about Duran's impact on the Phillies, his fun entrance from the bullpen, the Phillies' muddled outfield situation and more.Parx Casino and betPARX are the official casino and sportsbook of TPS.

But the offense can't string hits together and the Phils take another early October exit, forcing difficult decisions to be made in the offseason. It could happen again. It certainly happened this week in Houston. The Phillies allowed only five runs in the three-game series, but the offense scored only one.

    The Phillies needed to do something to get their struggling offense going.So, Rob Thomson on Tuesday finally made a change to the lineup. He moved Trea Turner into the leadoff spot. He moved Bryson Stott into the five-hole. Why five? Well, because Bryce Harper is injured, and the rest of the lineup might be struggling even more than Stott. The Phillies need almost perfect pitching to win these days. They didn't get it in Tuesday night's 8-4 loss to the Cubs, which included Mick Abel's first stumble in the big leagues, and Taijuan Walker's first stumble in his first high-leverage situation as a reliever. First Pitch is powered by betPARX Sportsbook and Casino app.The Phillies Show is partnering with Shibe Vintage Sports to give away a different vintage Phillies hat each week!

    In case you missed it, Alec Bohm and Brandon Marsh have been going through a terrible start to the 2025 season.But both had important at-bats in Tuesday night's 6-4 victory over the Giants. Marsh's sacrifice fly in the second inning gave the Phillies a 2-0 lead. Bohm's base hit in the sixth inning gave the Phillies the lead. Afterward, Harper had some philosophical thoughts about players struggling in the big leagues:“I just want [Bohm] to enjoy the game. Life could be a lot harder. Life can be a lot tougher. We get to play this beautiful game every day. I was standing in the on-deck circle in the third inning and I was thinking about it, 'Man, it's a great game we get to play.' Obviously, you're going to get your ups and downs in life and in the season. It's a hard thing to do. It is. But at the end of the day, we're all healthy, we're all strong.
