The Philadelphia Phillies are off to a rough start with a 0-4 record and only six runs scored in four starts by their ace pitcher. In their latest game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, pitcher Zack Wheeler was pulled during the sixth inning after giving up a go-ahead grand slam. Despite a home run by Trea Turner, the Phillies struggled to capitalize on scoring opportunities and grounded into multiple double plays.

The Phillies are 0-4 and have scored a total of six runs in four starts made by their ace this season.

“You never want to waste a good start, especially when your ace is up there,” Turner said. “It feels like we beat ourselves on those days.”In Wheeler’s starts — opening day against the Braves, April 3 in the rain against the Reds, April 9 in St. Louis, and now, against Pirates ace Mitch Keller and two relievers — the Phillies are batting .211 , including 3-for-20 with runners on second or third, and have scored a total of six runs.

After getting Suwinski to foul off an elevated first-pitch fastball, Wheeler went to the curveball and left it over the plate. Suwinski lined it into the right-field seats to give the Pirates a 5-2 lead.
