Okay, so it took a little longer than usual, but June Schwarber has arrived:

Two bombs in front of the dumbfounded Boston fans. Bill Simmons and his ilk.

And so much for the jet lag coming back from England. Zach Wheeler gave up the early run but steadied himself and went seven innings while allowing just three hits. The Phillies have the best record in baseball and a 10-game lead over the Braves, who lost their ace and the reigning MVP for the season. We’re not gonna put the cart before the horse on June 11th, but things are lining up nicely. Very nicely. Trea Turner is coming back and J.T. Realmuto’s outlook is reasonable. Schwarberfest is back. $5 shortis and $6 classics.
