Game 61 - Phils Win on the Night Hoskins Returns

2024 Topps Heritage #163

Phillies 3, Brewers 1
Game 61 - Monday Night, June 3rd in Philadelphia
Record - 42-19, 1st Place, 7 games ahead of the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  It was an emotional night at the ballpark as fan favorite Rhys Hoskins, now with the Brewers, made his return to Citizens Bank Park.

What It Means:  Hoskins was recently activated from the Injured List by the first place Brewers.  For the season, and following this game, he's hitting .243 with 10 home runs and 28 RBIs.

What Happened:  Zack Wheeler stayed hot with seven strong innings, allowing a run on five hits while striking out six.  Jose Alvarado pitched a perfect ninth to record his 10th save.

The Phillies scored first in the second inning when Edmundo Sosa singled home Nick Castellanos.  Johan Rojas then singled home David Dahl to make it 2-0, Phillies.  Dahl, called up earlier in the day, added a solo home run in the fourth inning.

Featured Card:  The Phillies played a highlight video montage between the first and second innings prior to his Hoskins' at-bat.  He was given a warm and lengthy standing ovation by the crowd and the Phillies are the absolute best at honoring their former players.  The game couldn't have been scripted any better, as the Phillies won, but Hoskins accounted for the only Brewers run with a solo home run in the seventh.  Any other game and Dahl would have gotten the featured card, but this night belonged to Hoskins.

Transactions:  In a flurry of moves, Kody Clemens (back) and Brandon Marsh (right hamstring) were both placed on the Injured List, with Weston Wilson (inf) recalled and Dahl (of) having his contract purchased to take their places.  Michael Rucker (rhp) was moved to the 60-day Injured List to make room on the 40-man roster for Dahl.

Pitchers and Catchers Report!

2014 Topps Update #US-281

We made it!  On Wednesday, there will be activity in Clearwater as it's the first official reporting day for the team's pitchers and catchers.  The day prior, the Phillies continued to tinker with their roster, making a few roster moves.

Kaleb Ort (rhp) was claimed off waivers from the Miami Marlins, and Diego Castillo (inf) was designated for assignment.  Castillo had been on the 40-man roster for eight days.  Ort has appeared in 47 games with the Red Sox over the past three seasons.  In 2023, he appeared in 21 games overall, making two starts, and was 1-2 with a 6.26 ERA in 23 innings pitched.  Ort has appeared in several minor league team sets, but has yet to receive a mainstream baseball card.

Andrew Bellatti (rhp) and Simon Muzziotti (of) both cleared waivers and were outrighted to the IronPigs.  They'll join the ranks of non-roster invitees, updated below.

And finally, David Buchanan (rhp) was signed to a minor league contract (!) and invited to spring training.  Buchanan, now 34, last pitched for the Phillies in 2015, and he's been active in Japan and Korea ever since.  In 30 starts last season with the Samsung Lions, Buchanan was 12-8 with a 2.54 ERA in 188 innings pitched.  It's an intriguing signing, and there's a good chance Buchanan makes a return with the Phillies at some point during the 2024 season.
