| 2023 Topps Phillies #PHI-14 |
Game 37 - Wednesday Afternoon, May 10th in Philadelphia
Record - 18-19, Tied for 3rd Place, 7 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: The Phillies stole this win thanks to a timely ninth inning double from J.T. Realmuto and a 10th inning throwing error from Blue Jays' shortstop Bo Bichette.
What It Means: That's a two-game sweep against the Blue Jays, heading into another off day on Thursday. The Phillies travel west for six games with the Rockies and Giants beginning on Friday night.
What Happened: Zack Wheeler pitched a gem, allowing a solo home run to Brandon Belt in the fifth inning. It was one of only three hits allowed by Wheeler, and he struck out seven. In the ninth, Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos started the inning with singles. After Kyle Schwarber struck out swinging, J.T. Realmuto doubled home Harper with the tying run.

In the 10th, with Edmundo Sosa stationed at second as the ghost runner, Bryson Stott stuck out and Trea Turner walked. Bryce Harper grounded into what should have been an inning-ending double play, but Bichette threw the ball wide of first, allowing Sosa to score the winning run.
