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 preserving a firm advantage heading into the final frame, with their bullpen showing signs of fatigue as weariness set in and the Phillies having trouble scoring.
In a stunning turn, the Phillies bursting for a massive surge with eight runs after two outs in the ninth inning, lighting up the field with a cascade of hits, a two‑run double, and a game‑winning walk‑off single that flipped the lead and left the Nationals reeling.
