2021 Topps Heritage #64 |
Game 59 - Saturday Night, June 1st in Philadelphia
Record - 41-18, 1st Place, 7 1/2 games ahead of the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Ranger Suarez departed early with an injury, but the bullpen held the Cards at bay and the offense continued to hit at home as the Phillies won, 6-1.
What It Means: Suarez took a comebacker off his left hand in the second inning off the bat of Alec Burleson, wincing in pain as he walked off the mound. Postgame reports were that it's just a bruise, and X-rays were negative, but Suarez's next start may get pushed back.
What Happened: The Phillies plated three in the first inning on RBI doubles from Alec Bohm and Nick Castellanos. Brandon Marsh added an RBI single in the third and Bryce Harper capped the scoring with a two-run home run in the seventh, his 14th of the season.

After Suarez exited, Spencer Turbull with three innings, and Orion Kerkering, Seranthony Dominguez and Gregory Soto, with an inning a piece, kept the Cardinals from adding any runs.
Featured Card: Turnbull was nearly perfect in his three innings of work, with the only Cardinals baserunner reaching on an error. He struck out six and improved his record to 3-0. Collectors are still waiting for Turnbull's first Phillies card.
Transaction: The Phillies claimed Freddy Tarnok (rhp) off waivers from the Oakland Athletics and transferred Dylan Covey (rhp) to the 60-day Injured List. Tarnok appeared in one game with the Braves in 2022, and five games with the Athletics last season. His first mainstream baseball card can be found in 2023 Topps Series Two.

That is one of the better Heritage cards
