Minor League #55
Phillies 4
, Marlins 2
Game 106 - Monday Night, July 31st in Miami
Record - 57-49, 2nd Place, 11 games behind the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  Taijuan Walker battled and Johan Rojas had a big two-run double in this 4-2 win over the Fish.

What It Means:  The Phillies kicked off this four-game series with a big win over their division rivals.

What Happened:  Walker won his league-leading 12th game, pitching 6 2/3 innings and allowing a pair of runs on six hits while striking out four.  Matt Strahm, Jeff Hoffman and Craig Kimbrel set down the Marlins the rest of the way, with Kimbrel recording his 18th save.  Rojas' double came in the fourth, tying up the game at 2-2.  Bryson Stott brought home another run with a sacrifice fly in the seventh and Alec Bohm added an insurance run in the eighth with an RBI single.

Featured Card:  I have eight Rojas baseball cards in my collection, all from minor league sets.  This is one of his many cards from 2022, from the Topps Heritage Minor League set.
