Citizens Bank Park - Philadelphia, PA
55-44, 2nd Place, 2 games behind the Braves
55-44, 2nd Place, 2 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Trea Turner collected three hits, including his 12th home run, and Jesus Luzardo breezed through five innings as the Phillies won over the Mets, 6-1.
What It Means: For the second day in a row, the start time of the game was moved up an hour, this time due to pending thunderstorms. The Phillies go for the series win this afternoon with Alan Rangel on the mound.
What Happened: The Phillies were up 2-0 early in this game, thanks to a two-run home run from Kyle Schwarber. Turner was on board, having singled to start the first. Turner led off the fifth with his solo home run, giving the Phillies a 3-1 lead. Alec Bohm would add an RBI single later in the inning. Bryce Harper capped the scoring with a two-run single in the sixth. Orion Kerkering, Jose Alvarado and Chase Shugart combined to throw four shutout innings in relief, with Alvarado's effort dropping his season ERA down below seven again. The game was interrupted in the seventh with a nearly hour long rain delay.
Featured Card: I'm still slowly picking up 2026 Phillies baseball cards, although I'm not as diligent about adding new cards as I used to be. Here's Turner's fairly non-descript but distinctly Bowmanesque card from this year's Bowman set.
