2024 Topps #229 |
Spring Training Game 19 - Thursday Afternoon, March 14th in Clearwater
Record - 8-8-3
One Sentence Summary: Ranger Suarez looked solid in his latest start as the Phillies defeated the Red Sox, 6-1.
What It Means: This game fell exactly two weeks before opening day.
What Happened: Suarez pitched 3 2/3 shutout innings, allowing a hit, four walks and striking out five. The Phillies plated four runs in the second with Edmundo Sosa and Weston Wilson contributing RBI singles and Whit Merrifield adding an RBI double. Two more runs scored in the sixth following back-to-back doubles from David Dahl and Kyle Schwarber, and an RBI single from Merrifield. Merrifield is batting .348 so far this spring with four doubles and two home runs.
Featured Card: Suarez, the club's solid number three starter, is definitely underrated and hopefully he starts to gain more recognition this year. Here's his first baseball card from 2024, from Topps Series One.
Camp Head Count: 56
