Game 92 - Saturday Night, July 15th in Philadelphia
Record - 50-42, 3rd Place, 11 1/2 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Johan Rojas collected his first big league hits, going 3 for 4 with a pair of RBIs in this 9-4 win over the Padres.
What It Means: Weather permitting, the Phillies will go for the four-game series win this afternoon. They're currently a game behind the Giants for the third National League Wild Card spot.
What Happened: Harper hit his fourth home run of the season in the fourth inning, tying up the score and marking the first time since May 25th the slugger had homered. The Phillies took the lead for good in the fifth. Garrett Stubbs and Rojas singled to start the inning, with Rojas collecting his first big league hit. Kyle Schwarber then launched a three-run home to give the Phillies a 4-2 lead. Rojas bunted safely for a base hit in the sixth, scoring Bryson Stott and giving his team a 5-2 lead. Rojas would collect his third hit and second RBI in the seventh, singling home Stott again as the Phillies mounted a 9-2 advantage.

Taijuan Walker pitched five innings, allowing two runs on four hits, on the way to his 11th victory.
Featured Card: Rojas received a Topps Now card for his big day, and that will become the first mainstream Phillies card of his in my collection. This is the newest card of his in my collection from the Reading Fightin Phils team set.
