The 31-year-old Nola was 4-1 with a 3.20 ERA through six starts in 2024. He finished 14-8 with a 3.57 ERA, helping the Phillies win the NL East. Nola, who agreed to a $172 million, seven-year contract with Philadelphia in February 2024, has stayed with his usual routine throughout his tough start to this year.

Nola put together his best outing of the season so far, and the Phillies took the series from the Cubs, but not without their still persisting issues lingering.

Trea Turner went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and Aaron Nola threw seven solid innings as the visiting Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Chicago Cubs 3-1 in 10 innings on Sunday.
