Segment 1: Early Career

Segment 2:  Rise to the Majors

  • On June 14, 2015, the Padres sent Turner to the Nationals to complete the trade made in December, and the Nationals assigned him to the Harrisburg Senators of the Class AA Eastern League.
  • After playing ten games for Harrisburg, the Nationals promoted Turner to the Syracuse Chiefs of the Class AAA International League.[22] Turner represented the Nationals at the 2015 All-Star Futures Game in July.
  • Turner went nine at-bats before collecting his first MLB hit on September 3, beating out a ground ball to reach first base safely.
  • He finished the 2015 season with a .225 batting average through 40 at-bats with one home run and one RBI.

Segment 3:  Career with the Phillies

  • On December 8, 2022, Turner signed an 11-year contract worth $300 million with the Philadelphia Phillies.
  • Turner struggled to start the 2023 season, batting .235 with 10 home runs and 34 RBIs in 107 games through August 3, when sports talk radio 94-WIP got the idea to give Turner a standing ovation by the Philly Captain the next night. After the standing ovation on August 4, Turner began a ten-game hitting streak.
  •  In the 48 games after the ovation, Turner batted .337 with 16 home runs and 42 RBIs.
  •  On August 19, 2023, in a 12–3 win against the Washington Nationals, Turner became the third player in Phillies history to hit two home runs in the same inning.
