Game 119 - Tuesday Night, August 13th in Philadelphia
Record - 69-50, 1st Place, 6 games ahead of the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Mired in a slump, slogging through the worst stretch of games of the season, the Phillies looked flat and lifeless in this 5-0 loss to the remnants of what had been a major league Marlins team.
What It Means: Perhaps this is the low point of the season?
What Happened: The Marlins dealt away most of their regular players leading up to the trade deadline, and the current line-up is largely call-ups from the minor leagues. Still, they were able to connect for three runs on four hits against Taijuan Walker, making his return from the injured list, and three Marlins pitchers held the Phillies' line-up to four hits. Walker labored through four innings, setting the tone from the outset by allowing a pair of Marlins runs in the first inning. The ballpark was quiet through all nine innings and the fans departed disgusted.
Featured Card: Former Phillie Cristian Pache entered the game in center field for the Marlins after an injury to Vidal Brujan. Pache went 0 for 3 with three strikeouts, staying on theme for any member, former or current, of the 2024 Phillies.
Transaction: Walker (rhp) was activated and Yunior Marte (rhp) was optioned back to Lehigh Valley.
