Game 12 - Nola, Phils Battle Rain, Cards for Series Win

2023 Stadium Club #199
Phillies 4
, Cardinals 3
Game 12 - Wednesday Afternoon, April 10th in St. Louis
Record - 6-6, 2nd Place, 2 games behind the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  Aaron Nola and the Phillies battled through the rain in St. Louis to win this game, 4-3, and secure the series win.

What It Means:  The Phillies open up a season-long 10-game homestead against the Pirates on Thursday night, before the Rockies and White Sox come in to town.

What Happened:  Nola won his second game, pitching six innings in a steady drizzle, allowing two runs on three hits.  Jeff Hoffman was the closer of the day, pitching a scoreless ninth to clinch his first save of the season.  The Phillies scored twice in the first on an error by center fielder Victor Scott and an RBI single from Alec Bohm.  Two more runs scored in the sixth on RBI singles from Brandon Marsh and Nick Castellanos.

Featured Card:  As I anxiously await the arrival of my Topps Heritage Phillies team set, I find myself without any more 2024 Nola baseball cards to post yet.  Here's a card not released until January 2024, but still considered to be a 2023 release.
