On offense, the Phillies had some missed opportunities. The first time through the Phillies order, Marlins starter Cal Quantrill had a perfect game going. He had retired nine consecutive Phillies before Trea Turner ended that with one swing, sending a slider 413 feet to left field for his ninth homer of the year.

The Phillies got just 20 games and 21 innings from Estévez in 2024 after a trade deadline move, but he was a stud and helped carry the Phillies and their impressively lopsided bullpen to a 95-win season. Dombrowski elected not to bring him back in 2025, and he's been killing it in Kansas City with a 1.85 ERA so far.
