Weston Wilson might be playing himself into playoff role for Phillies

Buddy Kennedy and J.T. Realmuto delivered the two biggest hits in the Philadelphia Phillies’ come-from-behind win over the New York Mets Sunday, but it was Weston Wilson who broke the ice.

With the Phillies trailing 1-0, Mets starter David Peterson came back out to start the bottom of the eighth inning. He was greeted with a double into the left-center field gap by Wilson. The aforementioned Kennedy drove him in to tie the game in the next at-bat.

It was Wilson’s only hit of the day, but he had previously hit a ball hard to right field off of Peterson in the bottom of the second inning that was caught.
