GDT 4/1/26 Washington Nationals (Cavalli) @ Philadelphia Phillies (Sánchez, C)

Sometimes a 3 degree launch angle works!

Glad Crawford is a ground ball hitter with the infield in, that worked

[Philsmania]

Great come-from-behind win to get the series win! I hate to speak in a cliche but maybe this can be something of a kickstart for us, especially with three in Denver against the Rockies coming up.

[Philsmania]

I would give Sosa the Player of the Game honors with the game-tying two-out hit in the 9th and the brilliant defensive play in the 10th.

Time flies but this is his fifth season here in Philadelphia.

[VoteForKalas]

Great win!

[Callison]

Never a doubt, Harry.

Cavalli looks like an All Star.

Phils atone for the previous stranger-than-fiction blown save in the tenth.

Whatta day for Sosa. Clutch at the plate. Clutch in the field. Dream level performance.

Then there's Clutch Crawford.

Congrats to those who got to watch this one live. You might never see a better one.

Someone somewhere noted that Crawford is the first Phillie to play in the bigs that was born after the Phils were done playing at the Vet.

Hopefully Francisco Renteria will be the first Phillies player born after our 2008 World Series.

Someone somewhere noted that Crawford is the first Phillie to play in the bigs that was born after the Phils were done playing at the Vet.

When Miguel Cabrera retired in 2023, he was the last active player to have played at the Vet and Jack Murphy/Qualcomm Stadium.

And, Crawford's father Carl played here in the 2008 WS.

This is the Phillies' 23rd season here, more than 2/3 the total years we spent at the Vet.
