Notes: Nola owns the best strikeout-to-walk ratio among qualified MLB starting pitchers. His previous start against the Marlins at Citizens Bank Park on June 13 was typical of what he’s been doing all season (7.0 IP, 6 H, 2 ER, 0 BB, 6 K)...The Phillies franchise record for most home runs before the All-Star break was set by Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt (31 HR in 1979). Schwarber enters today with 29.

Marlins Game Notes

  1. 2B Joey Wendle (111 wRC+ this season, 97 wRC+ over last 30 days)

  3. 1B Garrett Cooper (133, 112)
  4. DH Jesús Aguilar (99, 80)

Lineup Changes from Previous Game: Fortes, Sánchez and Wendle in, Bryan De La Cruz, Jacob Stallings and Luke Williams out; Aguilar and Cooper swap 1B/DH

Additional Notes: Saturday’s game matched the Marlins’ most lopsided loss of the 2022 season (10-run margin of defeat)...It’s the day before the All-Star break, so the Marlins can turn to their bullpen early without hesitation. Still, it’s stunning that Rogers has only one start this season of six-plus innings pitched (way back on April 28)...Anderson is starting in the second spot of the lineup for the first time since 2019...Rojas (.690 OPS in 30 PA) and Anderson (.807 OPS in 27 PA) have the most head-to-head history with Nola among active Marlins players.
