Game 114 - O's Rebound to Win Final Game in Series

Baltimore Orioles  5 
Philadelphia Phillies  1 

1963 Post #66
Wednesday Afternoon, August 6th
Citizens Bank Park - Philadelphia, PA
65-49, 1st Place, 2 1/2 games ahead of the Mets

One Sentence Summary:  Other than Trea Turner, the rest of the Phillies line-up seemingly took the day off, and Ranger Suarez gave up a crushing three-run home run in the fourth inning, as the Phillies lost to the Orioles.

What It Means:  They still won the series, and following an off-day on Thursday, the Phillies head out on the road for three games in Arlington, three games in Cincinnati and four games in Washington.

What Happened:  Suarez gave up five runs on nine hits, and the one big three-run home run to Coby Mayo over 6 1/3 innings.  Turner fell a home run short of the cycle, and he has yet to hit a home run this year at Citizens Bank Park.  The Phillies were 1 for 10 with runners in scoring position.

Featured Card:  With no other logical card to post for this game, here's my favorite Orioles card in my Phillies Collection.
