| 2023 Philadelphia Phillies Photo Cards #99 |
Game 75 - Friday Night, June 23rd in Philadelphia
Record - 39-36, 3rd Place, 9 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Taijuan Walker and a few timely hits from the Phillies offense led to this 5-1 win over the Mets.
What It Means: After figuring out Apple TV, I actually found this game to be enjoyable. The coolest feature of Apple TV is the ability to switch audio feeds. We moved over to the Scott Franzke/Larry Andersen radio call of the game in the first inning and never looked back.
What Happened: Walker pitched six innings, giving up three hits and a solo home run on his way to his eighth win. Per a Tweet from the Phillies Notes account, the Phillies are 14-4 since June 3rd with the starting staff in that span having a 1.61 ERA. That's the lowest ERA by Phillies starting pitchers over an 18-game span since May to June 1964. The hits weren't big from the offense, but they were timely. Bryce Harper had an RBI single in the first, followed by a Bryson Stott sacrifice fly. Brandon Marsh brought home another run when his pop up dropped between Mets fielders Tommy Pham and Francisco Lindor. Trea Turner capped the night with a two-run single following the Mets miscue on Marsh's ball.
Featured Card: With the posting of this card, I've exhausted my supply of Walker Phillies cards. Hopefully more are on the way. This is Walker's team-issued photo card which could be hard to track down this year as it was created solely for use in grab bags and on the off chance Walker needs something for an autograph signing.
