Game 90 - Sunday Afternoon, July 16th in Milwaukee
Record - 30-60, 5th place, 24 1/2 games behind the Nationals
One Sentence Summary: Nick Williams hit his first career grand slam and Jeremy Hellickson pitched well in what could one of his final starts with the Phillies (?) in this 5-2 win over the Brewers.
What It Means: Once again, the win saved the Phils from being swept in the series and they headed to Miami following the game to open a three-game series with the Marlins.
What Happened: Hellickson pitched five innings, allowing a two-run home run to Brett Phillips in the fifth. Hector Neris allowed a pair of hits in the ninth but managed to record his eighth save. The Phils scored first in the fifth when Odubel Herrera's ground rule double drove home Ty Kelly.
Featured Cards: This should do it for the 2017 Chachi Archives insert set, unless the Phillies have another game later this year wearing throw-back uniforms. For his efforts, Williams is the only player will two cards in the series.
