Taijuan Walker - Dominant against DetroitWalker (5-3) earned the win Tuesday, allowing two hits and three walks over seven scoreless innings in a 1-0 victory over the Tigers. He struck out eight.
ImpactIt was Walker's best start to date with the Phillies as he logged season highs in strikeouts and innings pitched. The 30-year-old Walker has looked better after a rough start to the season -- he has a 3.53 ERA over his last seven starts after posting a 6.91 mark over his first six. Walker now sports a 5.04 ERA with a 1.37 WHIP and 53:29 K:BB across 64.1 innings this year.

Kyle Schwarber - Homers for lone runSchwarber went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 1-0 victory over Detroit.
ImpactSchwarber led off the bottom of the first with a solo home run off left-hander Tyler Alexander. It would stand as the only run scored in the Phillies' 1-0 win. Schwarber now has three homers in his last three games. He's gone 5-for-20 (.300) over his last five contests after going just 2-for-30 in his previous nine. The 30-year-old Schwarber is now slashing .173/.322/.425 with 16 homers, 33 runs scored and 34 RBI through 261 plate appearances this season.

Tyler Alexander - Takes loss TuesdayAlexander (1-1) allowed one run on one hit across three innings to take the loss Tuesday against the Phillies. He struck out three and had no walks.
ImpactKyle Schwarber led off the game with a home run and it ended up being the only run either team would score. That left Alexander with a tough-luck loss, as this was one of his better outings of the season and his longest since going 3.1 innings on Opening Day. The lefty still has a rough 6.00 ERA overall and will likely continue to serve as a long reliever or occasional opener for the Tigers, giving him limited fantasy value.
