The Philadelphia Phillies exited the All-Star break in first place in the National League East and have a glaring need in centerfield.

Walker came away with a no-decision in Friday's 12-5 win over the Yankees, giving up three runs on six hits -- including three home runs -- over 5.2 innings. He struck out three without walking a batter.

The Phillies also have one game scheduled to stream exclusively on the Roku Channel — their Aug. 17 matchup against the Washington Nationals.

The Red Sox scored six runs in the fifth and avoided a three-game series sweep at Citizens Bank Park, taking a 9-8 win in 11 innings. The Phils dropped to 58-44 and Boston improved to 55-49.
