Zack Wheeler faced challenges pitching at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento, citing a poor mound as a source of frustration despite his strong performance in a 4-3 win over the Athletics. He completed 6⅔ scoreless innings, extending his streak to 22⅔ innings and lowering his ERA to 2.42, while the Phillies’ pitching staff maintained a 1.28 ERA during an eight-game winning streak. The offense was led by Trea Turner, who hit a leadoff home run and contributed to a late scoring surge, highlighting the team’s solid defense and pitching throughout the game.
