George M. Steinbrenner Field - Tampa, FL
21-15, 2nd Place, 2 games behind the Mets
21-15, 2nd Place, 2 games behind the Mets
One Sentence Summary: Cristopher Sanchez and Taijuan Walker combined to shutout the Rays, holding their offense to two singles in this 7-0 win.
What It Means: The Phillies go for the series sweep tonight behind Jesus Luzardo.
What Happened: Sanchez (six innings) and Walker (three innings) each allowed a hit while striking out five and seven batters, respectively. The Phillies scored the only run they needed when Trea Turner launched a solo home run in the third. A five-run fourth inning put the game out of reach, highlighted by a suicide squeeze bunt from Johan Rojas to score J.T. Realmuto and a two-run double from Bryce Harper.
Featured Card: Sanchez pitched more innings, but Walker was a tad more dominant with his seven strikeout performance in just three innings of work. He earned his first career save for his effort. This is a preview of what his Topps flagship set card could look like once Series Two is released, from the retail team set.
