Sunday Afternoon, April 5th
Coors Field - Denver, CO
5-4, 4th Place, 1 game behind the Marlins
5-4, 4th Place, 1 game behind the Marlins
One Sentence Summary: Mickey Moniak homered twice and Taijuan Walker suffered through another rough first inning in this 4-1 loss to the Rockies on Easter Sunday.
What It Means: The Phillies took two out of three in Denver, and head to San Francisco next for a late night set against the Giants.
What Happened: Walker's ERA is up to an unsightly 9.31 after two starts, as he allowed four runs overall in his five innings of work. The Rockies were quickly up 3-0 in the first, with their scoring started by Moniak's first home run of the day. Another former Phillies' prospect, TJ Rumfield, connected for a two-run home run later in the inning. The only offense from the Phillies came from Adolis Garcia, who hit a solo home run in the second. Moniak's second solo shot came in the bottom of the fifth.
Featured Card: A first round draft pick and a highly touted prospect, Moniak played in only 47 games for the Phillies between 2020 and 2022, yet I have 48 cards of his in my Phillies collection. It seems he's found a good home in Denver with the Rockies, as he's had a regular outfield job with the club the last two seasons. He batted .270 last year, attaining career highs in home runs (24) and RBIs (68).

Rumfield didn't appear on any Phillies minor league cards during his time with the organization.
