On Sunday, June 28, 2026, the Philadelphia Phillies faced the Washington Nationals in a regular‑season clash that seemed to be slipping away as the Nationals clinging to a solid lead heading into the last inning, with their bullpen showing fatigue as tired arms tried to hold the line and the Phillies having trouble scoring.
In a dramatic turn, the Phillies erupting in a dramatic rally with eight runs after two outs in the ninth inning, deluging the park with a barrage of hits, a two‑run double, and a clutch walk‑off single that reversed the score and left the Nationals reeling.
