Philadelphia Phillies Starting Pitcher Zack Wheeler was at the top of his game tonight at home against the Boston Red Sox. He surrendered two earned runs over six innings of work and punched out 10. He walked away with a no-decision in the contest.

His great first half of the season led to him getting an All-Star nod. He is eighth in the league in ERA, leading the league in strikeouts, second in WHIP, and second in opposing batting average. Will the Phillies ace keep pitching at an elite level over the summer?

Zack Wheeler Career Summary

Wheeler debuted with the New York Mets in 2013. While he showed potential in New York, he has come into his own during his six-year tenure with the Philadelphia Phillies. He is a three-time All-Star and won a Gold Glove in 2023. He also has three top-10 finishes in Cy Young voting, including two second-place finishes. He is on pace for another great finish in Cy Young voting.

Final Thoughts

Wheeler’s next scheduled start is Sunday on the road against the New York Yankees. This will be a stiff test for him. The Yankees feature one of the most potent offenses in Major League Baseball. He will look to keep it going into what he hopes is a deep postseason run.
