A Promising Start
Hey Phillies fans!
️ Despite the tough loss, our boys showed some serious grit at the start of the game. The Philadelphia Phillies kicked things off in style with Trea Turner showing off his wheels with an electric triple to center field. That set up Kyle Schwarber to bring him home with a solid groundout, giving us a 1-0 lead right out of the gate. Though Bryce Harper and J.T. Realmuto couldn't add to the score in the first inning, it was a promising beginning. 
Adding to Our Lead
In the top of the third, it was Alec Bohm's turn to shine! He knocked in both Schwarber and Harper with a clutch single to right, pushing our lead to 3-0. Brandon Marsh followed that up with a booming double, and it looked like we were ready to extend our lead even further. Unfortunately, we couldn't convert more runs, but the boys were on fire early on!
The Tide Shifts
Things got a bit rocky after the third inning. The Mets tied it up in the fourth, with some unfortunate errors and a balk that really cost us. It was a tough break as Sánchez worked hard on the mound but struggled to keep the Mets from scoring. They took the lead in the fifth inning and kept applying pressure.
Late Inning Struggles
Our bullpen had a rough outing as the Mets broke the game open late. The seventh inning saw a crucial three-run homer by Luis Torrens, stretching their lead beyond our reach. The boys tried their best, but the Mets were relentless, scoring seven more runs to finish things off. The final score ended up at 3-13.
Keep the Faith!
It certainly wasn't the outcome we hoped for, but let's focus on the early positives. Turner's triple, Schwarber's RBI, and Bohm's clutch hit showed the heart this team has. And we know the Phillies will bounce back and learn from this tough game. Onward and upward, Phils fans—let's look ahead to the next game! We've got the talent, and brighter days are just around the corner!
