The Phillies swept the Nationals over the weekend, and Kody Clemens led the way. He hit a game-tying home run with two outs in the ninth inning on Saturday. He hit a go-ahead double in the fifth inning on Sunday. Ruben, Jim and Todd talk about Clemens' massive contributions, and what the future might hold for him.

The Phillies are 34-14, tying the `93 and `76 Phils for the best 48-game start in club history. Only four teams in MLB have started 34-14 or better this century: 2023 Rays (34-14), 2016 Cubs (34-14), 2006 Tigers (34-14) and 2001 Mariners (36-12).

Jim loves Rob Thomson's message to his players to keep the motivated.

The gang also digs into Bryson Stott's turnaround; how the Phillies could make the case for four NL All-Star infielders with Bryce Harper, Alec Bohm, Trea Turner and Stott; Cristopher Sanchez's development, which had him touching 98 mph in the sixth inning on Saturday; and this week's matchup against the World Series-champion Texas Rangers.

Ruben, Jim and Todd answer questions from The Phillies Show listeners.

We discuss Bryson Stott’s and Brandon Marsh’s development against left-handed pitching; Kyle Schwarber’s bat speed; stats that jump out to us, including Alec Bohm’s ridiculous production with runners in scoring position; the Phillies’ biggest need before the July 30 trade deadline; which `08 Phillies numbers should be retired; why in the world Ruben and Jim sign off every episode with a “smell ya later,” and much more.

The Phillies crushed the Marlins on Friday and Saturday. It set up for another series sweep on Sunday, especially with Zack Wheeler on the mound. But Wheeler struggled and just like that the Phillies lost the series finale in 10 innings.

It happens.

The gang discusses Wheeler's start, but also digs into something a little more concerning: Kyle Schwarber and J.T. Realmuto are dinged up. Neither injury is believed to be serious, but health (or a lack thereof) might be the only thing that can derail the Phillies right now. They also get into Nick Castellanos' and Bryson Stott's recent hot streaks and more.
