| 2023 Topps Big League #244 |
Game 27 - Friday Night, April 28th in Houston
Record - 14-13, Tied for 3rd Place, 4 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Aaron Nola looked All-Starish and Nick Castellanos robbed Alex Bergman of a first inning home run in this 3-1 win over the defending World Champions.
What It Means: I didn't feel like paying $6.99 to start my Apple TV+ subscription, so we streamed the audio broadcast of the game. If more Phillies games start appearing on Apple TV+, I'll likely bite the bullet and sign up.

The game was a crisp 2:26, and the Phillies have won 10 of their last 14 games.
What Happened: The Phillies scored first when Kyle Schwarber hit a solo home run in the first. Jeremy Pena quickly tied the score with a solo home run in the bottom of the inning off Nola. That would be the only run allowed by Nola, as Castellanos dramatically brought back a home run, leaping above the right field fence to catch the ball. Cristian Pache would double home Edmundo Sosa in the fifth to give the Phillies the lead, but Pache would have to leave the game after injuring his knee on the play. His replacement, Brandon Marsh, singled home Sosa for an insurance run in the seventh. Jose Alvarado continued his ninth inning dominance with a perfect inning, striking out two and securing his fifth save.
Featured Card: Nola's card from the recently released 2023 Topps Big League set gets the foil treatment, and features a photo taken as Nola emerged from the dugout before Game 2 of the Wild Card series last season in St. Louis.
