The Phillies turned another page in their 2016 rebuild during Monday Night's 6-2 victory over the struggling Pirates.
Not one but two of their prospects crossed milestones: Jorge Alfaro made his Major League Debut and Roman Quinn got his first home start. Even sweeter each of the rookies recorded their first hits as well.
Snapshots
Roman Quinn got to bat at CBP for the first time and had a pretty good night. He went 2-4 with a pair of doubles, 2 RBIs and a walk.
After a tough first inning Jeremy Hellickson settled down and pitched into the 7th only allowing 1 unearned run and three singles.
Gerrit Cole's first start off of the DL didn't go well. He was lifted after two innings. He gave up 5 Runs on four hits and four ugly walks.
Freddy Galvis homered for the Good Guys.
I understand how Roman Quinn got the Anonymous Treatment in the Topps Starting Lineup department. However....
How is it that Jeremy Hellickson doesn't have a card yet?

Good Guy Awards go out to the Pirates Josh Harrison (above) and David Freese who each signed a bunch of autographs pregame.
I picked up my first Rob Manfred Baseball on Monday Night.
Moving on Up
Now that school is back in session tix for selected games are even cheaper $14 for a night at the ballpark ain't bad, even if your watching a fourth place team. The Phillies recorded their 64th Win last night which guarantees they will finish with an improved record over the 63-99 of 2015.
