1954 Bowman #143 |
Game 17 - Tuesday Afternoon, April 18th in Chicago
Record - 7-10
One Sentence Summary: Bryson Stott extended his season opening hitting streak to 17 games and the Phillies took care of the White Sox in this 7-4, Game 1 win.
What It Means: Stott's 17-game hitting streak broke the 16-game consecutive streak record set by Willie "Puddin' Head" Jones in 1950.
What Happened: The Phillies plated three first inning runs, with Nick Castellanos singling home Stott, and Alec Bohm adding a two-run single. In the third, Josh Harrison added a two-run single to put the Phillies up 5-0. Zack Wheeler ran into trouble in the third, allowing four runs to score, and Wheeler would exit after five innings. His final line shows four runs on eight hits and five strikeouts. Harrison hit a two-run home run in the seventh, his first with the Phillies, giving him four RBIs on the day. Jose Alvarado pitched a perfect ninth inning, recording his first save of the season.
Featured Card: I really don't want to pass up the opportunity to feature a vintage Jones baseball card, especially one showing an actual signature of his where he signed his first name as "Puddin' Head."
