Out of all major league hitters, that ranks 21st highest.<\/p><div><\/div><p>But learning that those numbers supported what he was feeling at the plate didn\u2019t help him much. He was still going to have to find a way to turn things around, and get back to what helped him win the National League batting title in 2025. <\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cDoesn\u2019t matter, because it\u2019s all about production, right?\u201d Turner said. \u201cI\u2019m not the prettiest player or whatever you want to call it. I don\u2019t do everything perfect, and I just find a way to help the team. \u2026 When I try to be perfect, it just sets me backwards. And I just have to be who I am.<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>\u201cEveryone likes to tell you all the things, that they even out, or this can\u2019t happen the whole year. But after a while, it gets so old. How do you get better? How do you find more production?\u201d<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>One of the major keys is cutting down on chasing pitches outside the strike zone, which has been a major issue for Turner this season. Back in June, when he had that conversation with Studnitzer, Turner was chasing at a 37.1% clip. In July so far, he has cut that to 29%. <\/p><div><\/div><p>In turn, that forces pitchers to attack him differently, and makes it more likely he gets pitches to hit, like the fastball he sent 414 feet on Saturday for his second homer in as many games after the All-Star break. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>\u201cYou\u2019re definitely going to get pitched differently when you quit chasing. You keep chasing and swinging, they\u2019re going to keep throwing it until you stop,\u201d said interim manager Don Mattingly. \u201cSo he\u2019s getting pitched differently. He\u2019s creating the pitches. It\u2019s like we talk about with [Bryce Harper]. He has to protect himself. If they\u2019re not pitching to him, he needs to walk. Things like that. And I think that\u2019s what you see with Trea, is that you\u2019re not chasing as much, you\u2019re getting better pitches.\u201d<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Ahead of the All-Star break, Mattingly gave Turner an extra day off during the Phillies\u2019 road series in Cincinnati because he was a \u201clittle banged up in the lower half.\u201d Turner has been in the lineup all three games since the break. <\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cI don\u2019t know if we\u2019re 100%, but I think we\u2019re a lot better than we were before the break. Let\u2019s put it that way,\u201d Mattingly said. <\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=2794\">\u2018The Frog Commissary Cookbook\u2019 remains a Philadelphia icon over 40 years after its debut<\/a><\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Turner still has the green light on the bases to steal whenever he feels he is able to, Mattingly said. Turner swiped his 17th base of the season on Saturday, which ties Bryson Stott for the team lead. <\/p><div><\/div><p>Turner said that he doesn\u2019t feel limited physically on defense. Where he feels the room for improvement lies in reading hops better.<\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cPhysically, there\u2019s nothing to change,\u201d he said. \u201cJust keep doing the things that I\u2019ve been doing the last two years with [infield coach] Bobby [Dickerson] and working on those fundamentals. But just reading the ball a little bit better.\u201d<\/p><div><\/div><div><h3>Looking ahead to Dodgers series <\/h3><\/div><div><\/div><p>When Los Angeles comes to town on Monday, the Phillies will avoid facing Shohei Ohtani \u2014 on the mound, at least. <\/p><div><\/div><p>Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters Sunday that Ohtani will not make his next scheduled pitching start on Wednesday against the Phillies, due to lingering left knee soreness. Ohtani, who has a 1.79 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 14 starts this year, opted out of the All-Star Game for the same reason. He has never pitched at Citizens Bank Park during the regular season, but was on the mound last year for Game 1 of the 2025 National League Division Series, when he held the Phillies to three hits and three runs over six innings. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>The two-way star is, however, able to hit as normal, and is expected to be in the lineup as a designated hitter during the upcoming series. In 93 games, Ohtani has a .943 OPS and 22 homers. <\/p><div><\/div><div><h3>Extra bases<\/h3><\/div><div><\/div><p>Cristopher S\u00e1nchez (11-4, 2.62 ERA) is scheduled to start opposite Dodgers right-hander Emmet Sheehan (4-6, 4.81) in Monday\u2019s series opener. <\/p><div><\/div><div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\" alt=\"The Inquirer logo\" class=\"wp-image-47\" src=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/faba80d67140212ba32240655442c529.png\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n        Watch the latest episode\n      <\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Phillies owner <strong>John Middleton<\/strong> spent months planning to host the city\u2019s first All-Star Game in 30 years.
