Saturday night, news dropped that the Phillies were placing ace righty Zack Wheeler on the injured list due to a blood clot in his shoulder area. More on that in a second.  Sunday, veteran right-hander Aaron Nola returned from a lengthy stint on the injured list.

Aaron Nola hit another wall in his return, but the Phillies were able to overcome it to split a four-game set in D.C., though now with the high uncertainy of Zack Wheeler's status looming.

Nola will start on Sunday for the first time since May 14. Manager Rob Thomson says the Phillies will use the six-man rotation "once for sure" to build in extra rest for their starters.

The Washington Nationals have had trouble generating consistent offense lately, but they had no difficulty doing so on Sunday against Aaron Nola.
