Across his first five seasons in the majors, Marsh posted a .213 average against lefties. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>This year, though, he\u2019s hitting .277 against them, and the questions have been a little different.<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Marsh said advice from other left-handed hitters on the team, specifically Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper, and Bryson Stott, has helped him improve his approach this year. But more experience also is a factor. <\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cI think you just learn more and more every single day, and getting a little bit more comfortable,\u201d Marsh said. <\/p><div><\/div><p>He\u2019s had the benefit of plenty of experience this year, as he\u2019s played his way into an everyday role for the first time on the Phillies under interim manager Don Mattingly. Marsh has been the Phillies\u2019 most consistent hitter all season, and it\u2019s been hard for Mattingly to justify holding him \u2014 and his MLB-leading .332 batting average entering Saturday \u2014 out of the lineup, no matter who\u2019s on the mound.<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>\u201cHe\u2019s got a good swing, No. 1, it\u2019s where it starts,\u201d Mattingly said. \u201cIt\u2019s really about game playing with lefties on lefties, where you got to start balls and things like that. And he\u2019s getting better at that.\u201d<\/p><div><\/div><p>With the increased opportunity and experience, the results have followed. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>\u201cWe\u2019ve talked about it,\u201d Schwarber said. \u201cI feel like he\u2019s growing a lot. He\u2019s growing into that. You can talk about all you want, but also, too, you have to have experience, and you have to keep going out there and keep getting the at-bats.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=612\">We met some Philadelphians at Fashion District and asked them the same question: What made you fall in love with the city?<\/a><\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cAnd there\u2019s going to be at-bats that you have success, and there\u2019s going to be at-bats where you\u2019re just going to feel like it\u2019s not competitive. That\u2019s the nature of the game, where you can\u2019t always have the A-plus stuff, but also being able to learn from each of that and keep moving forward and apply it to your next one, I feel like he\u2019s been doing a really good job of that.\u201d<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Schwarber underwent his own mid-career transformation against left-handed pitchers. When he signed with the Nationals in 2021, they envisioned him as a platoon player. But consistent work over several seasons helped him become not just serviceable against lefties, but a matchup-buster. <\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>Last season, Schwarber bashed 23 homers to set a single-season major league record for the most from a left-handed batter off a left-handed pitcher.<\/p><div><\/div><div><\/div><div><\/div><p>And he\u2019s not surprised with what he\u2019s seeing from Marsh this season. <\/p><div><\/div><p>\u201cTo be honest with you, I\u2019ve always seen it,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve always seen it in him. I know a lot of guys have always seen it in him. There\u2019s such a high ceiling, and he\u2019s tapping into it. \u2026 He\u2019s obviously having really good results, but even just the process of the at-bats, and taking pitches, taking some tough ones, and working deeper counts, too. \u2026 I got a lot of belief in him, just like we have a lot of belief in everyone in our room.\u201d<\/p><div><\/div><div><h3>Extra bases<\/h3><\/div><div><\/div><p>The White Sox used left-handed opener Brandon Eisert in front of scheduled starter Sean Burke on Saturday. \u2026 Reliever Zach Pop, who was designated for assignment on May 30, cleared waivers and elected free agency. \u2026 Aaron Nola (3-4, 5.55 ERA) is scheduled to start Sunday\u2019s series finale against White Sox right-hander David Sandlin (1-1, 8.10).<\/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>Fifty years ago, the All-Star Game came to Philadelphia as part of the bicentennial celebration. <strong>Larry Bowa<\/strong> was among five Phillies who represented the National League.
