Brandon Marsh Analyzes Causes Behind Second-Half Slump

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh is working through a significant second-half slump, seeing his batting average drop from .315 at the All-Star break down significantly due to changes in pitch mix, launch angle, and contact quality at the bottom of the strike zone. Manager Don Mattingly and the team still believe in his impact as October approaches, with Marsh focused on making better swing decisions, getting the ball off the ground, and using the opposite field.
