Jorge Alfaro also had a poor week. The promising young catcher hit just .167 in two games played.

Aaron Altherr had a rough week at the dish. Altherr hit just .063 with six strikeouts in 16 official at bats.

Ryan Howard’s farewell tour is off to a poor sport. Howard batted just .125 with a homer. This final week of games will be Howard’s goodbye to the City of Brotherly Love.

Here’s hoping he can finish the season strong and have his final chapter with the Fightins end on a happy note.
