A shaky eighth inning saw Trea Turner picked off and caught stealing third, then Bryce Harper thrown out at home after a review, putting Philly in rare historical company: the first team since 2022 to have runners caught stealing third and home in the same game—and the first since 1992 to do it in one inning. Despite more baserunning missteps, including another caught steal at third in the tenth, the Phillies rallied with three runs to take a 4-1 lead and held on for a gritty win, cutting their playoff magic number to 22.
