Ben Verlander, a former Tigers minor leaguer, took to X on Thursday to vent about his brother’s bad luck this season. He posted during the Giants’ 13-0 defeat to the Phillies in which Justin allowed four runs (two earned) in six innings.

In sum, Verlander pitched well enough to finally earn his first win of the season — his first win as a Giant. Instead, Verlander will go into the All-Star break with no victories and seven losses after allowing four runs — two earned — over six innings as the Giants were blown out, 13-0, by the Phillies.

Kate Upton, wife of San Francisco Giants pitcher Justin Verlander, recently spoke about the challenges of being married to a Major League Baseball player. She mentioned the demanding MLB schedule and how it affects family time.

It's Wednesday, July 9 and the Phillies (53-39) are in San Francisco to take on the Giants (51-42). Jesús Luzardo is slated to take the mound for Philadelphia against Justin Verlander for San Francisco.

Giants: Justin Verlander (0-6, 4.97 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, 60 strikeouts) BOTTOM LINE: The San Francisco Giants and the Philadelphia Phillies play the last game of a three-game series. The Giants can sweep the series with a victory.
