| 2024 Topps Big League To the Moon #TM-3 |
Game 37 - Tuesday Night, May 7th in Philadelphia
Record - 26-11, 1st Place, 3 games ahead of the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Cristopher Sanchez pitched a gem and Bryce Harper hit a thrilling grand slam as the Phillies cruised to a 10-1 win over the visiting Blue Jays.
What It Means: This would be the seventh and final win in the Phillies overall win streak and their 11th and final win in their home win streak. Their last loss at home had been on April 14th against the Pirates.
What Happened: Sanchez worked cleanly through seven innings, allowing a run on six hits and striking out five. Spencer Turnbull, new to the bullpen, pitched the final two scoreless innings. Both Harper and Kody Clemens drove in four runs in this game. Clemens hit a two-run home run in the second and connected for an RBI triple in the fourth.
Featured Card: This is as good an opportunity as any to feature Harper's aptly named To the Moon insert card from this year's Topps Big League set.

Field Report: Jenna and I attended this game, eventually making our way to Section 315. I say eventually, because we've started enjoying a leisurely pregame meal at Pass and Stowe before settling into our seats. It was a gorgeous night for baseball, made even better by the offensive explosion from the Phillies.
