Michael Harris II, Austin Riley combine for thrilling game-ending double play in Braves' win over Phillies

It was your typical game-ending 8-5-3 doubleplay in October.

Michael Harris II and Austin Riley helped the Atlanta Braves complete a 5-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 2 of the National League Division Series in thrilling fashion.

With one out in the top of the ninth inning and Bryce Harper on first base representing the tying run, Nick Castellanos hit a drive to deep right-center field. Harris chased it down from center field and made a leaping catch against the wall for the second out of the inning.

Harris quickly made a relay throw towards the infield as Harper was retreating, but the throw was offline and the ball bounced under the glove of second baseman Ozzie Albies.
