Game 109 - Mariners Slam Phillips in Loss

2022-23 Topps Now Offseason #OS-30
Mariners 10
Phillies 2
Game 109 - Late Friday Night, August 2nd in Seattle
Record - 65-44, 1st Place, 5 games ahead of the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  The Phillies' losing ways continued as the Mariners demolished Tyler Phillips in this 10-2 defeat.

What It Means:  I wisely opted to call it a night after the Phillies batted in the top of the second inning, missing the bludgeoning of Phillips in the bottom of the second.

What Happened:  Phillips gave up a solo home run to Victor Robles in the bottom of the first, a three-run home run to Luke Raley in the bottom of the second, and was chased from the game when Justin Turner hit a grand slam a few batters later.  The Mariners led, 8-0 after two innings.  The Phillies scored a pair of runs in the ninth inning, after back-up catcher Garrett Stubbs threw a scoreless bottom of the eighth, retiring the Mariners in order.

Featured Card:  This is the most recent Phillies-Mariners card in my Phillies collection, from the 2022-23 Topps Now Offseason set.
