Game 150 - Suarez, Offense Fall to Brew Crew

2024 Topps Now #257
Brewers 6
Phillies 2
Game 150 - Monday Night, September 16th in Milwaukee
Record - 90-60, 1st Place, 8 games ahead of the Mets

One Sentence Summary:  Ranger Suarez's first half form continued to elude him, as the Brewers defeated the Phillies, 6-2 in the series opener.

What It Means:  The Phillies had plenty of hits, but very few clutch hits.  The offense collected 11 hits overall, but was 1 for 9 with runners in scoring position, while grounding into two double plays.

What Happened:  Suarez dropped to 12-7.  He pitched five innings, allowing three runs on four hits.  Jose Alvarado and Tanner Banks couldn't keep the Brewers off the board, allowing three more runs over their combined two innings of work.  Brandon Marsh hit a solo home run in the fifth, and Kyle Schwarber had an RBI-single in the seventh.

Featured Card:  Rhys Hoskins was 1 for 3 in this game to raise his season average to .208.  I'll never pass up an opportunity to feature another Hoskins card.  Here's his Topps Now card from early June when he made his return to Philly.
