CATCH OF THE DAY: Philadelphia needs to win one of their final three games against the Marlins this season to secure their ninth-consecutive winning season against Miami (11-8 in 2017, 10-9 in 2016, 10-9 in 2015, 10-9 in 2014, 12-7 in 2013, 10-8 in 2012, 12-6 in 2011, 13-5 in 2010) Philadelphia has not finished a season with a sub-.500 record versus the Marlins since 2008 (8-10; 9-9 in 2009). YOUTH GROUP: The Phillies began the season with the youngest roster in MLB With about two weeks remaining in the season, the Phillies have collected 884.0 innings from pitchers aged 26 or younger, the second-highest total of any team in the majors (most: PIT, 1013.2 IP) Further, every Phillies pitcher, not named Jake Arrieta, who has made a start this season has been 26 or younger Philadelphia s 117 games started by pitchers 26 or younger lead the majors (next: STL, 112 GS) Offensively, Philly s 3,589 plate appearances by players 26 or younger rank 2 nd in the majors to only the Cubs (3,633) and their 117 home runs are most (next: TEX, 115 HR). PROGRESS IN THE PROCESS: Thus far, through 145 games, the Phils are three games above.500 at 74-71 and in regards to the.500 mark, have improved by 36 games from this point last year when they were 33 games under.500 at 56-89 As for run differential, the Phillies have improved by 93 runs from this time last year when they carried a -113 mark through 145 games The Phils, who matched last year s win total of 66 on August 15, didn t notch their 66 th win last year until the final day of the season, October 1 against the Mets, a difference of 47 days on the calendar. ARMS RACE: Philadelphia s starting staff is currently averaging 8.96 SO/9.0 IP this season and are on pace to obliterate the previous franchise record of 8.00 SO/9.0 IP set in 2012 The rotation s 797 strikeouts this season are the fifth-most in club history, 135 shy of a record 932 set by the 2011 rotation With 17 starts remaining, the rotation would have to average about 7.9 strikeouts per start to reach that total. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE: Philadelphia s 519 walks are its most in a season since 2011, when the club had 539 Carlos Santana (97), Cesar Hernandez (87) and Rhys Hoskins (79) are the first trio of Phillies with 75 or more walks in a season since 2009 (Ryan Howard, Chase Utley and Jayson Werth) The Phils are the only team in MLB that has multiple players with 75 or more walks in 2018 Among all ML teams, the club ranks 2 nd in pitches per plate appearance (4.02, best: LAD, 4.04), 4 th in walk rate (9.4%) and T-7 th in walks.
