Philadelphia’s power duo Bryce Harper (.291 BA, 15 HR) and Alec Bohm (51 RBI) spearhead the NL East leaders against a resurgent Red Sox squad. Boston counters with AL batting leader Jarren Duran’s speed and rookie Kristian Campbell’s 17-game on-base streak. Phillies’ ace Zack Wheeler (1.42 ERA in July) faces Boston’s Kutter Crawford, whose splitter neutralizes lefties—critical against Harper’s launch-angle swing. The game hinges on bullpen resilience: Phillies’ José Alvarado’s sinker vs. Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen’s cutter in late-inning high-leverage scenarios.
