Turner’s Red-Hot Week Earns NL Player of the Week Honors
Philadelphia, PA—Trea Turner’s no-frills, all-business approach has long made him a favorite among Phillies fans, and last week he turned that steady style into serious fireworks. The 31-year-old shortstop torched National League pitching to claim NL Player of the Week, batting a blistering .500 (10-for-20) with five home runs, 11 RBIs and six runs scored.
Turner’s surge adds to a strong season in which he’s hitting .265 with 32 homers and 84 RBIs across 139 games—numbers that underscore why his consistency and punch remain vital to Philadelphia’s push down the stretch.
