Philadelphia witnessed an exciting triumph by the Phillies, who defeated the Red Sox with a score of 3-2 in a game that was decided in the tenth inning.
Automatic runner Brandon Marsh scored the winning run thanks to a catcher’s interference, with the bases loaded, thus sealing the victory for the Phillies.
In the bottom of the tenth inning, Edmundo Sosa made a controlled swing that resulted in contact with catcher Carlos Narváez’s glove. After a review, interference was determined, allowing Marsh to score the winning run.
This receiver interference victory is an uncommon event in MLB history.
