Phillies escape ‘bullpen game’ with a win

Final Score: Phillies 7, Nationals 5

Jean Segura and J.T. Realmuto (and the Nationals’ replacement level bullpen) saved the day. In a back-and-forth game that included four lead changes, Segura tied the game on an opposite-field RBI double and Realmuto gave them the lead with a bases-loaded single in the ninth.

Alec Bohm stole two more runs with a single and a smart play on the bases. Instead of running straight to second on a Didi Gregorius double play, Bohm got himself caught in a rundown long enough for Realmuto to come home and score the fifth run of the inning.
