Philadelphia Phillies DFS SPIN
Garrett Stubbs went 1-for-2 and drew a walk as the Phillies were shut out by Justin Verlander and the Astros on Tuesday evening in Houston. After striking out in his fist at-bat, Stubbs drew a walk against Hunter Brown in the sixth inning but wound up stranded at second base. He then led off the ninth with a single — and advanced to third with only one out — but the Phillies couldn’t cash him in to avoid the shutout. On the season, Stubbs has hit a very respectable .272/.359/.476 with five homers, 16 RBI and two stolen bases in 118 plate appearances.
Houston Astros DFS SPIN
Kyle Tucker clubbed his 30th home run of the season and drove in three runs on Tuesday as the Astros routed the Phillies 10-0 in Houston. Tucker did his damage in the opening inning, launching a 377-foot three-run shot off of Ranger Suarez to extend the Astros early lead to 5-0. It’s the second straight season that the dynamic 25-year-old has hit the 30-homer plateau, though this time it has come with a career-high 25 stolen bases as well. On the season, he’s hitting .258/.331/.479 with 30 long balls and 107 RBI.
