Second Summer Sabbatical Game Recap Catch-Up Post 9 of 10

One Sentence Summary:  The Phillies offense stayed hot, plating 12 runs on 13 hits in this 12-7 win over the Angels.

What It Means:  The win streak reached (and would stop) at five with this victory.  The Phillies took their second of three games from the Angels, but the sweep would elude them on Wednesday thanks to another rough spell from the bullpen.  

What Happened:  The game should have been more of a blowout, if not for three Phillies errors and a shaky ninth inning in which the Angels scored twice off Andrew Bellatti.  Michael Lorenzen earned the win, allowing four runs (three earned) over six innings, while striking out five.  Trea Turner stayed hot, hitting a two-run triple in the sixth and a solo home run in the eighth.  Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, Alec Bohm and Bryson Stott joined Turner in the home run parade.

Shohei Ohtani was 3 for 5 with a pair of RBIs for the Angels, while Logan O'Hoppe and Mickey Moniak were a combined 0 for 6.

Featured Card:  Bohm was 2 for 3 with three RBIs in this game, including a big three-run home run in the sixth that gave the Phillies a 5-4 lead.  This is his card from the Topps Big League set, released in late March.
