Those four pitches were all splitters as Duran finished out a Phillies comeback victory over the Tigers to take the series opener -- and regain first place in the National League East. In one of the most electrifying games of the year, Duran stole the show in his debut.

It was 30 minutes after Duran left the mound, and the Phillies readied to head home. Taijuan Walker sat at his locker and whistled Duran’s warmup song. Duran overheard him and smiled. A few minutes later, Alec Bohm whistled it as he left the clubhouse.

New Phillies closer Jhoan Duran had a long day. Then he stepped on the mound at Citizens Bank Park and everything happened quickly.
