Johan Rojas, the Phillies' outfielder, has shown remarkable prowess in previous games despite fluctuating batting averages. His defensive skills remain unblemished with a perfect fielding percentage across all three games. However, his batting needs a boost after going hitless in four at-bats in one game but maintaining a disciplined approach at the plate.


On the other side, Ryan McMahon of the Rockies has been a consistent threat at third base. McMahon's performance peaked in one of the recent games where he hit a home run and maintained a .333 batting average, showcasing his power-hitting capabilities. His fielding has been impeccable, contributing significantly to the Rockies' defense.

For the Phillies, other notable performances include Edmundo Sosa's impressive .667 batting average and Alec Bohm's flawless fielding at third base. The pitching staff sees Zack Wheeler leading with a win under his belt and an ERA of 2.571 across one of the games.


The Rockies counter with their own set of top performers. Elias Díaz and Jacob Stallings have provided stability behind the plate, while Brendan Rodgers impressed with a perfect batting average in one game and contributed two RBIs to his team's effort.
