| 2004 Upper Deck McDonald's Phillies #4 |
Game 117 - Wednesday Afternoon, August 17th in Cincinnati
Record - 65-52, 3rd Place, 10 1/2 games behind the Mets
One Sentence Summary: Reds' pitchers Nick Lodolo and Alexis Diaz baffled the Phillies, and the Reds walked this one off with a ninth inning single from Jose Barrero.
What It Means: It would have been nice to sweep this series, especially with the four-game series coming up beginning Friday against the Mets. The last four games lost by the Phillies have all been shutouts.
What Happened: Ranger Suarez deserved better. Suarez went seven innings, striking out eight and allowing three hits. Seranthony Dominguez coughed up the winning run, reminding us that he is actually human. The Phillies offense had five hits and went 0 for 4 with runners in scoring position.
Featured Card: I got nothing, and I want to save my few remaining Suarez cards for a game in which the Phillies win. So here's a card of current Reds manager David Bell, the last Phillies player to hit for the cycle, back on June 28, 2004.

Transaction: Andrew Vasquez (lhp), designated for assignment on Monday, was claimed off waivers by the San Francisco Giants. Vasquez had been on the team's 40-man roster for less than two weeks.
