Manager Rob Thomson, who led the Phillies to four straight playoff appearances, has been fired after Philadelphia lost 11 of 12 games and began Tuesday tied for last place in the majors. Bench coach Don Mattingly was named interim manager through the end of the season. Thomson went 355-270 and had led a Phillies team loaded with high-priced talent that included Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber and Trea Turner to consecutive division titles. The 62-year-old Thomson signed a contract extension in the offseason through the 2027 season and was again expected to lead the Phillies into World Series contention. The Phillies and their $300-plus million payroll have instead been one of the biggest flops in the baseball.

Paul Skenes (P - PIT)
4/28/26 10:00 AM - The mighty NL Central is the majors' only division with 5 winning teams. The NL Central has reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Paul Skenes.

It’s the second-latest date in a season that every NL Central club has been over .500, according to Sportradar, trailing May 29, 2004, when the division had six teams and each one was 23-22 or better.
