2023 Topps Baseball 35th Anniversary All-Stars #88AS-34 |
Game 90 - Friday Night, July 14th in Philadelphia
Record - 48-42, 3rd Place, 13 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: The Phillies' bats forgot to return from the All-Star break, as the Padres easily took this 8-3 win.
What It Means: After a long post-vacation week of trying to catch up at work and attempting to defeat a nasty cold, it was slightly refreshing to sit and watch at least the beginning of this game, despite the outcome.
What Happened: Not much happened from the Phillies' perspective. Cristopher Sanchez got the start and gave up three runs in five innings of work. The bullpen couldn't keep the game close following Sanchez's departure, with Andrew Vasquez and Dylan Covey each allowing a pair of runs. Alec Bohm had a two-run double in the fourth and J.T. Realmuto hit a solo home run in the ninth.
Featured Card: My Topps Series Two master team set was waiting for us when we returned from vacation, and this was one of the insert cards in the package. Harper didn't do much in this game, and he didn't go to the All-Star Game, but it seemed like a good enough card to mark the beginning of the season's second half.
Transaction: On Wednesday following the All-Star Game, Josh Harrison (inf) was placed on the Injured List with a right wrist contusion. Cristian Pache (of) landed on the Injured List prior to this game with a right elbow injury. Drew Ellis (inf) and Johan Rojas (of) were recalled to take their spots on the roster.
