Realmuto hit one of two homers off Clayton Kershaw in the eighth inning. The backstop also doubled off Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and he’s slashing .385/.385/.923 over the first three games against Los Angeles. He’ll get a chance to improve that mark against the Dodgers on Thursday in Game 4.

Realmuto gave the Phillies an early 2-0 advantage as he roped a two-run triple off of Shohei Ohtani in the second inning and then scored on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Harrison Bader. That would wind up being his only hit in the night — and the only scoring that the Phillies would ultimately do. They’ll now need to get up off the floor and put up a fight in Game 2 on Monday night or risk heading back to Los Angeles facing a 2-0 deficit.

Realmuto left Tuesday’s game with a index finger contusion and it’s no surprise that the backstop will take a break from Wednesday’s action. The 34-year-old will sit with Rafael Marchan handling catching duties.

Realmuto appears to have avoided major injury after being hit on the right hand while catching in the top of the ninth inning during Tuesday’s eventual extra-inning marathon. He’s presumably day-to-day for the final two games of the mid-week series against Miami.

Realmuto was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the bottom of the ninth inning of a tie ballgame after being drilled on the right hand in the top of the frame. He was 0-for-3 at the dish prior to leaving the contest. He’ll presumably undergo further evaluation and testing to determine the severity of the issue.

Realmuto returns to Philadelphia’s lineup after sitting out Tuesday’s contest at Dodger Stadium due to illness. The veteran backstop has put together a near carbon copy of last year’s numbers and has a decent shot at finishing his age-34 campaign with nearly 15 homers and 10 steals.

Realmuto went on a homer binge last week and had one more this week, but he’s 1-for-19 with nine strikeouts in his last five games. The Phillies really need someone outside of the big three to step up in the cleanup spot. Realmuto, Alec Bohm, Nick Castellanos and Harrison Bader all went hitless tonight.

It’s nothing more than a routine day of rest for the 34-year-old backstop after starting each of the team’s first four games of the week. Rafael Marchan will start in his place behind the dish and will bat ninth against Bryce Elder and the Braves.

Realmuto has been spending a lot of time in the cleanup spot for someone who pretty obviously isn’t a cleanup hitter at this stage of his career, but he made good tonight. In fact, he had as many RBI in this game as he did in his previous 18 starts batting fourth. Realmuto’s homer, a 431-foot bomb, was the just the second allowed by Matt Brash in 33 1/3 innings this season.

It’s nothing more than a routine night off for the 34-year-old backstop. Rafael Marchan will start in his place behind the dish and will bat ninth for the Phillies against Brady Singer and the Reds on Tuesday evening in Cincinnati.

Relamuto’s run-scoring double snapped a 1-1 tie and proved to be enough for the Phillies to eke out a one-run victory. The 34-year-old backstop also singled in the ballgame, finishing the afternoon 2-for-4. He finishes the first half of the season hitting .268/.324/.381 with five homers, 32 RBI and five stolen bases in 299 plate appearances.

Realmuto found some good spots today, getting his hits on outfield flies with xBAs if .350, .300 and .370. Still, he deserves some luck, considering he entered with a .355 slugging percentage versus a .404 xSLG. His exit velocity numbers are about the same as usual, but his now .365 slugging percentage is more than 60 points lower than his worst season mark (.428) from the last nine years.

It’s just a routine day off for the veteran, who is hitting .288 in 18 games in June with 11 runs scored, six RBI and one steal. Realmuto is likely to finish with around 10 home runs and 10 steals on the season, so he no longer packs the punch that he used to in fantasy leagues, but his prominent role on a good team keeps him in the mix in two-catcher leagues. Rafael Marchan will start in his place.

Realmuto sat out Thursday’s contest after leaving Wednesday’s game after taking a foul ball to the groin while behind the dish. It sounds like the day off did him some good though, as he’s right back in there and donning the tools of intelligence once again on Friday evening. He’ll bat fifth against Pirates’ left-hander Bailey Falter.

Realmuto was in serious pain after being hit by a foul ball in the groin area, which led to him departing the contest in the ninth inning. There should be an update on his status ahead of Thursday’s series finale, but we’re assuming he’s going to need a couple days off.

It’s the lowest that Realmuto has batted this season. The 34-year-old veteran backstop been struggling in recent weeks, hitting .227/.292/.387 with four homers and 14 RBI over his last 30 games. He’s not in danger of losing playing time, but he’s barely hanging on to fantasy relevance at the catcher position, especially with a wave of talented youngsters just starting to reach the majors.

Realmuto had started five consecutive games behind the plate and exited Wednesday’s game due to a left foot contusion, so getting the 34-year-old backstop a breather isn’t a bad idea. Rafael Marchan will do the catching for the Phillies on Friday night and will bat ninth against Guardians’ right-hander Gavin Williams.

Realmuto is back in the lineup just a day after leaving Wednesday’s bout against the Rays with a left foot contusion. He didn’t undergo imaging, so that removal was purely precautionary and he’s ready to roll for the series finale.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson told reporters following Realmuto’s early exit from Wednesday’s contest after fouling a ball off his left foot that his level of concern is basically zero before adding that he won’t even need to undergo precautionary X-rays. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern for now.

Realmuto was pulled from the late stages of Wednesday’s contest after fouling a ball off his left foot in the seventh inning. He managed to finish the at-bat, but was replaced by Rafael Marchán in the bottom of the frame. He’ll head for precautionary X-rays to determine whether he suffered any fractures. There should be an update on his status following the contest.

Realmuto’s homer off Brandon Pfaadt was his second in three games and third of the year. That he still rates as a top-10 fantasy catcher at this point mostly comes down to him stealing bases; he’s 4-for-4 this season after going just 2-for-4 last year. He totaled 50 steals in the three-year span from 2021-23.

Realmuto had not homered since April 15, but the 34-year-old backstop took Eduardo Salazar deep to extend the Phillies lead to 7-2. He also singled to improve his slash to a still-shaky .237/.308/.361 over the first 30 games of the 2025 campaign. If not for the positional value, Realmuto would be unplayable. Because he’s a catcher, you can probably do worse. Weird how that works.

Realmuto delivered a solo shot off Justin Verlander in the first inning. It was 387 feet, but since it was just a little left of dead center, it was a homer in only seven ballparks, according to Statcast. Realmuto has been hitting into bad luck this season, so he’ll take it. He’s obviously not what he used to be offensively, but he’s still a top-10 fantasy catcher. He’s greatly enhanced his fantasy value early this year by going 4-for-4 stealing bases.
