Save for Austin Hays’ leadoff homer in the fifth inning, Wheeler was perfect. One hit. No walks. Twelve strikeouts. Bryson Stott’s two-run homer in the eighth earned Wheeler the victory.

Zack Wheeler threw a one-hitter for his first complete game since 2021 in the Philadelphia Phillies' 3-1 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday. Wheeler (9-2) — the National League’s pitcher of the month in June — allowed only a leadoff homer to Austin Hays in the fifth inning.

In an absolute gem of an outing, Wheeler tossed a complete game one-hitter against the Cincinnati Reds, striking out 12 while walking none. The sole hit given up was a solo shot by Austin Hays. He lowered his ERA to 2.17 in the process, the second-lowest mark in the National League behind Paul Skenes.
