Duran Dominates, Phillies Turn It Around | MLB News

Jhoan Duran just blew up the NL with his June dominance, earning Reliever of the Month after nine saves, 18 strikeouts, and a jaw-dropping 1.64 ERA in just 11 innings. Acquired at the trade deadline last year, he’s been the Phillies’ unsung hero, posting a 1.52 ERA and 0.94 WHIP this season with zero blown saves. After a shaky start, Philly’s turnaround is fueled by Duran’s late-inning reliability — a much-needed upgrade after years of bullpen woes. While the team still needs middle relief help, having Duran in the ninth is a game-changer as they push toward playoff contention. June’s momentum? Pure Duran magic.
