Phillies ace Zack Wheeler showed everybody on Tuesday why he believes he should be an NL All-Star.

He struck out a career-high 14 batters in seven innings in a dominant performance against the Reds. Afterward, he made his case to join his six teammates at the All-Star Game at Citizens Bank Park.

Kyle Schwarber continues to hit Schwarbombs, although Tuesday’s in Cincinnati was an unusual one. Plus, Orion Kerkering’s issues in the eighth inning, Trea Turner’s defense and more.

We also discuss Aaron Nola’s start on Sunday, Andrew Painter’s Triple-A start on Saturday and more.

It was 105 degrees at Citizens Bank Park on Thursday afternoon.

It’s been hot at the Bank all week. The Phillies’ offense scored 25 games in the first three games of a four-game split against the Pirates, including an eight spot on Paul Skenes. But Zack Wheeler was hot on Wednesday night when Don Mattingly pulled him from the game with two outs in the fifth inning. Wheeler talked about it on Wednesday night. Mattingly addressed it on Thursday.

Plus, an update on Jim’s tomatoes, while NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Rob Kuestner tells us some cool All-Star programming coming up next week!
