2024 Philadelphia Phillies Photo Cards |
Game 82 - Friday Night, June 28th in Philadelphia
Record - 54-28, 1st Place, 8 games ahead of the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Cristopher Sanchez was masterful in his complete game shutout against the Marlins, and the Phillies manufactured a pair of runs to win, 2-0.
What It Means: The Phillies can win the series with a victory either today or tomorrow.
What Happened: Sanchez needed 101 pitches to complete his gem, and he scattered three singles throughout the game. He struck out nine, one short of his previous career-best of 10. The Phillies scored the only run they needed in the fifth when Whit Merrifield and Garrett Stubbs started the inning with back-to-back singles and Bryson Stott brought Merrifield home with a ground out. In the eighth, Johan Rojas earned a hustle double, went to third on a wild pitch and scored on a Stott sacrifice fly.
Featured Card: Here's perhaps one of Sanchez's rarest cards so far from 2024, his team-issued photo card which as far as I know were only set loose to the public on ALS Night, June 2nd. The cards were included as identifiers within grab bags of signed memorabilia, and one of the bags we snagged had this card and a hat signed by Sanchez. I'm attempting to build the checklist for the set over at the TCDB. I'm also actively seeking these cards if you have any looking for a good home!
Transaction: Bryce Harper (1b) and Kyle Schwarber (dh) were placed on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain and a left groin strain, respectively. Kody Clemens (1b) was activated from the injured list and Rojas (of) was recalled from Lehigh Valley.
