Overview

• Edmundo Sosa’s check swing in the 10th struck Carlos Narvaez’s glove and, following a replay challenge, allowed automatic runner Brandon Marsh to score the walk-off run.
• It was the first walk-off catcher’s interference finish in MLB since Aug. 1, 1971, and it came under the automatic runner rule without a Phillies hit in extra innings.
• Zack Wheeler struck out ten over six innings while allowing two earned runs, and relievers Max Lazar, Tanner Banks, Orion Kerkering and Matt Strahm kept Boston scoreless in the final four frames.
• The win improved the Phillies to 57-43 and put them a half-game ahead of the New York Mets for first place in the NL East.
• Carlos Narvaez apologized for the late-game error and Edmundo Sosa said the finish “felt exactly like a home run,” underscoring the emotional impact of the obscure rule application.
