Phillies Begin 3-Game Series at Home Against the Cubs
- The Philadelphia Phillies begin a three-game home series against the Chicago Cubs on Monday with Zack Wheeler pitching at Citizens Bank Park.
- Wheeler returns after a layoff since May 29 due to the birth of his fourth child and is expected to provide strong pitching to help the struggling Phillies.
- The Phillies have lost nine of their last ten games, including a series sweep by the Pirates, and need key offensive contributions from players like Schwarber and Turner to recover.
- Wheeler recorded a 2.96 ERA in May with eight runs allowed over 32 innings, and Schwarber leads the majors in home runs against left-handed pitching, while Turner has 27 hits versus lefties this season.
- This series offers the Phillies a chance to stop their losing streak and close the gap in the NL East, where they are 4.5 games behind the Mets but nine games above.500 overall.
