1988 Topps Big #226 |
Game 64 - Saturday Afternoon, June 10th in Philadelphia
Record - 31-33, 3rd Place, 9 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Phillies' pitching got hit early and often, as the Phillies' hitting continued to slumber in this 9-0 trouncing.
What It Means: We had debated going to this game as Jenna wanted to see the postgame concert (AJR) but I'm glad we ended up skipping it.
What Happened: Aaron Nola didn't have it, and he was tagged with six runs in 6 1/3 innings of work. Jeff Hoffman threw gas on the fire, allowing a pair of Nola's inherited runners to score and then giving up three runs of his own on a J.D. Martinez three-run home run. In the middle of the nightmare seventh inning, in which the Dodgers scored six times, manager Rob Thomson was ejected. Thomson had been sticking up for Nola, who was delaying the game (slightly) when asking for new baseballs. Dylan Covey and Kody Clemens settled things down with a final two scoreless innings. Clemens has now pitched in four games, and has a respectable 3.38 ERA in 2 2/3 innings.
Featured Card: I got nothing here. I spent part of the weekend getting my 1988 Phillies binder added to my collection over at TCDB.com, and this is one of the random cards from the binder. For the record, my username is Ringo73 at TCDM.com, and my 1988 Phillies binder contains 567 unique Phillies baseball cards.
