Game 25 - Wednesday Night, April 26th in Philadelphia
Record - 12-13, Tied for 3rd Place, 5 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Down 5-2 after two innings, the Phillies plated four unanswered runs in the final six innings to earn the 6-5 come-from-behind victory.
What It Means: Hopefully the Phillies can ride the good vibes from their third comeback win in the last five games to a series win this afternoon. They're now tied for third place with the Marlins, still trailing the Mets and Braves in the division.
What Happened: Taijuan Walker, who left the game with tightness in his pitching arm, gave up five runs in his four innings of work, including a second inning grand slam to J.P. Crawford. The Phillies had scored their first two runs on a first inning two-run home run from Nick Castellanos, his third of the season. The next four Phillies runs all came on RBI singles from Kyle Schwarber in the third, Castellanos in the fifth, J.T. Realmuto and finally Alec Bohm in the eighth. Bohm's single was the fourth straight of the inning, putting the Phillies on top. Jose Alvarado made quick work of the Mariners in the ninth, striking out Julio Rodriguez to end the game and notch his fourth save.
Featured Card: Bohm had the winning hit, but Castellanos did the most overall damage in this game, going 3 for 4 with three RBIs and raising his season average to .333. He struggled the bulk of last season, so I didn't have many opportunities to feature any of his 2022 baseball cards. This is his card from the on demand Topps 3D set, released exclusively through Topps' website. The scan doesn't do the card justice as lenticular technology has come a long way since the Kellogg's and Sportflics days.
