Game 18 - Tuesday Night, April 18th in Chicago
Record - 7-11, 4th Place, 7 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Bailey Falter pitched well but the Phillies were nearly no-hit in this 3-0 loss in the second game of Tuesday's double header.
What It Means: There's one more game on Wednesday afternoon against the White Sox before the Phillies head home for seven games with the Rockies and Mariners.
What Happened: Falter's only mistake came in the first inning when Jake Burger hit a three-run home run. He'd settle down after that, pitching seven innings and allowing only three hits in total. The White Sox pitching was better. Starting pitcher Lucas Giolito and reliever Kendall Graveman combined for seven no-hit innings. In the eighth, with Aaron Bummer on the mound, Brandon Marsh led off with a double to left for the team's only hit of the game.
Featured Card: Old friend Adam Haseley made a brief appearance in this game for the White Sox, entering in right field in the eighth and moving to left field in the ninth. Haseley has spent much of the past two season with the Charlotte Knights, the White Sox top farm club. At the end of spring training last year, Haseley was dealt to the White Sox with the Phillies getting reliever McKinley Moore in return.
Transaction: Following the game, Yunior Marte (rhp) was returned to Lehigh Valley.
