1984 Topps #323 |
Game 24 - Tuesday Night, April 23rd in Cincinnati
Record - 15-9, 2nd Place, 2 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: The Reds returned the favor to the Phillies, hitting Cristopher Sanchez hard and keeping the offense off the bases most of the night.
What It Means: The seven-game winning streak ended, and Sanchez's tough turn ended a run of superior starting pitching from the Phillies.
What Happened: Sanchez lasted three innings. He probably deserved a better fate, as four of the five runs he allowed were unearned thanks to costly errors from Edmundo Sosa, Cristian Pache and Alec Bohm. The Phillies plated one run when J.T. Realmuto and Bohm hit back-to-back doubles in the top of the first inning. They were 0 for 8 with runners in scoring position for the rest of the game.
Featured Card: A forgettable game with no clear cut featured card subject in sight means I'll continue my season-long tribute to the 1984 Topps set. Here's Alan Knicely's card from the set, and the catcher would go 0 for 7 in seven games with the Phillies in 1985.
