The lead

June 15, 2026 - Philadelphia - Zack Wheeler struck out nine in six scoreless innings with 26 pitching FP in AthX Engine scoring, Gabriel Rincones Jr. homered for his first career hit, and the Philadelphia Phillies shut out the Miami Marlins 7-0, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.

Philadelphia finished with 17 team FP on the Monday card.

How the game turned

Wheeler allowed a leadoff single and a walk in the first before fanning four straight batters to set the tone. Rincones, playing his second career game, sent an 84-mph slider over the right-field wall in the second for a 1-0 lead.

J.T. Realmuto added a two-run homer in the fifth, and Brandon Marsh went 2-for-5 with a double to push his average to .324.

Pitching and matchup notes

Wheeler (6-1) allowed two hits and lowered his ERA to 2.01 through 10 starts. Three Phillies relievers finished the combined shutout.

Ryan Gusto (0-2) allowed five runs on eight hits in 4⅔ innings for Miami, which had won 10 of its previous 13 June games.

Bats that changed the board

Wheeler's 26 FP start carried most of Philadelphia's daily value alongside 17 team FP. AthX Engine graded the outing second on the Monday pitching board behind only Dustin May's gem in St. Louis.

AthX Engine fantasy angle

AthX Engine rewards six-inning shutouts with high strikeout totals. Wheeler's line registers among the strongest pitching scores on the card, separate from dynamic pricing.
