Key Stats
Philadelphia Phillies
The Philadelphia Phillies are hitting at a strong level as they are seventh in the majors with a .256/.329/.413 team slashline while scoring 4.71 runs per game up to this point. They have been aggressive at stealing bases as they are sixth in the sport with 91 steals while being caught 19 times. Designated hitter Kyle Schwarber has been hitting at a great level as he has a .961 OPS with 36 home runs, 84 RBI, 75 runs scored, and nine steals on 11 attempts.
Right-hander Zack Wheeler is going to be taking the mound for the Philadelphia Phillies for Sunday’s game and is pitching well thus far as he is 9-3 with a 2.39 ERA and a 0.88 WHIP in 128.0 innings of work. He is doing a great job at keeping the ball in the job as he has allowed 14 homers thus far. Wheeler faced the Yankees once last season in a loss as he allowed seven runs on seven hits with three walks and six strikeouts in five innings of work.
New York Yankees
The New York Yankees are hitting at an outstanding level as they are best in baseball with a .788 team OPS while averaging 5.18 runs per game this season. The team continues to hit for an incredible amount of power as they are in first place with 168 combined home runs hit. Center fielder Trent Grisham has been hitting well as he is posting a .252/.323/.463 slashline with 17 homers, 38 RBI, 48 runs scored, and a 45:73 walk-to-strikeout ratio.
The New York Yankees are sending left-hander Carlos Rodon to the hill and pitched well thus far as in his first 21 starts, he is 10-7 with a 3.10 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP in 124.2 innings of work. He has struggled to get outs consistently as he has a .188 opposing batting average up to this point. Rodon has not faced the Phillies since the 2022 season, so this is going to be an intriguing battle.

Prediction
Seeing the pitching matchup, these teams are going to struggle to get hits consistently. However, Carlos Rodon is 6-3 with a 2.82 ERA and a .156 batting average against in 10 starts at Yankee Stadium this season. The Yankees are going to be without Aaron Judge for some time, but they should be able to withstand this right now. I understand this means nothing in the grand scheme of things, but New York is 4-1 in their last five Sunday games as well. All in all, go with the New York Yankees to avoid being swept.
