1993 Topps #235 |
Game 147 - Tuesday Night, September 20th in Philadelphia
Record - 80-67, 3rd Place, 13 1/2 games behind the Mets
One Sentence Summary: The Blue Jays demolished Kyle Gibson and a few Phillies relievers in this brutal 18-11 loss.
What It Means: At least the Phillies scored 11 runs? Having witnessed none of this debacle, I can only imagine watching the actual game was painful.
What Happened: On the positive side, Dalton Guthrie hit his first big league home run and Kyle Schwarber hit his 40th home run of the season, making him the first Phillies slugger in the 40 home run club since Ryan Howard connected for 45 home runs in 2009. J.T. Realmuto went 5-for-5, including his 20th home run of the season. Back-up catcher Garrett Stubbs made his fourth relief appearance of the season and was the only Phillies pitcher on the night not to give up any runs.

On the negative side, actual Phillies full-time pitchers gave up 18 runs on 21 hits. Gibson was scorched for seven runs on 12 hits in his five innings of work, giving him a September ERA of 9.68 in his four starts so far this month.
Featured Card: Of course the last time the Phillies and Blue Jays scored 29 combined runs in a game was on October 20, 1993 in Game 4 of the 1993 World Series. That game was actually way more painful than this game as Mitch Williams blew his first of two World Series saves, with the Blue Jayes winning, 15-14.
