Game 120 - Saturday Night, August 20th in Philadelphia
Record - 66-54, 3rd Place, 11 games behind the Mets
One Sentence Summary: Bailey Falter pitched the best game of his young career, as the Phillies held on to beat the Mets, 4-1.
What It Means: The Phillies will go for a series split in this afternoon's series finale.
What Happened: Falter went six strong innings, allowing a run on two hits and two walks. The Mets run scored in the first inning on a wild pitch. The Phillies received big, much-needed hits from J.T. Realmuto, singling in the first to tie the game, and Alec Bohm, doubling in the third to drive in a pair of runs and give the Phillies a 3-1 lead. Rhys Hoskins added an insurance run with an RBI-single in the eighth. With Seranthony Dominguez apparently experiencing tightness in his triceps, David Robertson secured the two-inning save.
Featured Card: It's got to be Falter, and this is his team-issued photo card, still available for sale at the ballpark at $6 for the set.

Field Report: Doug and I joined roughly 40,000 other fans at this game, getting our new sustainable Phillies hats at the front gate and then heading immediately to Bull's BBQ for dinner. The biggest shocker of the night was seeing Ron Reed signed Wall of Fame baseballs for sale at the Phillies Authentics stand prior to the start of the game. We agreed to return to the stand during the game to secure a Reed ball for Doug's collection. Returning in the eighth inning, we were shocked to learn all Reed balls had been sold out, and I'm assuming he didn't sign many of them. Lesson learned, and we'll be sure to buy something when first seen from here on out.
