Game 124 - 2021 Topps Allen & Ginter #85 Rhys Hoskins

Phillies 7
, Padres 4
Game 124 - Sunday Afternoon, August 22nd in San Diego
Record - 63-61, 2nd Place, 5 games behind the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  Rhys Hoskins returned to the line-up and his two home runs helped support a stellar effort from Kyle Gibson in this 7-4 win over the Padres.

What It Means:  The Phillies won the series, remaining five games behind the Braves in the division.  After an off-day on Monday, they'll open a quick two-game series against the Rays at home on Tuesday night.

What Happened:  Gibson settled down after a rough first inning and pitched eight innings, allowing a run on six hits.  Hector Neris had to be called on to record the final out of the game after Bailey Falter allowed three runs to score in the bottom of the ninth.  Odubel Herrera had a big day at the plate, with four hits and three RBIs.  Herrera and J.T. Realmuto both homered in the seventh inning.

Featured Card:  Hoskins missed 11 games while on the injured list and he immediately made his presence felt upon his return.  He homered in the fourth and fifth innings and left the game as a precaution in the later innings as the game was seemingly safely in hand.

Transactions:  Hoskins (1b) was activated from the injured list and the struggling Alec Bohm (3b) was optioned back to Lehigh Valley.  Mauricio Llovera (rhp) also cleared waivers and was outrighted to the IronPigs.
