Game 11 - Tuesday Night, April 11th in Philadelphia
Record - 4-7, 4th Place, 3 1/2 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: The Phillies fell to the Marlins, 8-4, as Aaron Nola had another rough outing and the Marlins' Luis Arraez hit for the first cycle in franchise history.
What It Means: An incredibly busy week at work means I'm a few games behind, although I've not really missed much.
What Happened: Nola's record dropped to 0-2 as he allowed four runs on nine hits while pitching into the sixth inning. The usually steady Andrew Bellatti gave up three more Marlins runs in the eighth. The Phillies got on the board in the sixth when Kyle Schwarber hit a solo home run, his third of the season. Later in the inning, Bryson Stott would line a bases loaded single to left, scoring a pair of runs, but then Stott would get thrown out while circling too far off first base. The Phillies have been a hot mess on the base paths so far this season. J.T. Realmuto added an RBI double in the ninth, but it wasn't nearly enough to overcome the deficit.
Featured Card: Arraez doubled in the first, tripled in the sixth and hit a home run off Connor Brogdon in the seventh. He singled off Bellatti in the eighth to complete the cycle. The last cycle from a Phillies player came way back on June 28, 2004 when current Reds' manager David Bell did it at Citizens Bank Park against the Expos. Of course Topps Now wasn't around back then, and as far as I know, Bell's feat has never been celebrated on a baseball card.
