Game 34 - Luzardo Solid in Outing, Backed by Six-Run First Frame

Philadelphia Phillies  7 
Miami Marlins  2 

2026 Topps #63
Sunday Afternoon, May 3rd
loanDepot park - Miami, FL
14-20, 4th Place, 10 1/2 games behind the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  Behind a six-run first inning and a 10-strikeout outing from Jesus Luzardo, the Phillies were able to defeat the Marlins, 7-2.

What It Means:  They'll go for the four-game series win on Monday night.

What Happened:  Luzardo was spotted a six-run lead before he even took the mound.  He would allow a pair of runs on eight hits en route to his third win of the year.  Chase Shugart and Orion Kerkering took care of the final eight outs, with Shugart continuing to impress.  The Phillies scored three runs quickly at the start of the game - Trea Turner doubled, Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper both walked and Alec Bohm brought Turner home when he grounded into a fielder's choice.  Marsh walked with the bases loaded scoring a second run and J.T. Realmuto hit a sac fly to center to score Harper.  Bryson Stott then launched his second three-run home run in the series, giving the Phillies a 6-0 lead.  Justin Crawford added an RBI single in the third.

Featured Card:  Luzardo earns the honors for his solid start, and this is his card from this year's Topps flagship offering.
