2017 Topps Update #US46 |
Game 48 - Tuesday Night, May 23rd in Philadelphia
Record - 22-26, 4th Place, 7 games behind the Mets
One Sentence Summary: Dylan Covey made his Phillies debut and provided five much-needed innings of work, but the Phillies offense couldn't string together many clutch hits in this 4-3 loss.
What It Means: The Diamondbacks take the series, and a win on Wednesday was needed to avoid the sweep.
What Happened: Matt Strahm served as the opener, pitching the first two innings and giving up a pair of runs. Covey covered the third through seventh innings, allowing only one more run to score while striking out six. The Phillies tied the game up 3-3 in the seventh with the key hit being a pinch-hit single from Alec Bohm up the middle to tie the game. A costly passed ball from J.T. Realmuto in the eighth set up the Diamondbacks taking the lead again when Corbin Carroll singled home Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Seranthony Dominguez took the loss after failing to retire a batter in the eighth, while allowing two hits and a walk.
Featured Card: Covey has appeared on a few mainstream baseball cards, with his first being found in the 2017 Topps Update set, shown here. Between 2017 and 2023, he's appeared in 63 games with the White Sox, eight games with the Red Sox, one game with the Dodgers and one game (so far) with the Phillies.
