Phillies - 000 320 000 1 - 6 9 0
Astros - 023 000 000 0 - 5 10 0J.T. Realmuto lined a solo home run to right field leading off the top of the tenth inning and David Robertson stranded Astros at second and third in the bottom half, giving the Phillies a 6-5 comeback win in Game 1 of the World Series.
This was the first extra-inning World Series game since the Red Sox and Dodgers played 18 innings in 7:20 in Game 3 in 2018. This was also Houston's first loss in eight postseason games this month.
The Phillies became the sixth team to overcome a five-run deficit and win a World Series game. Dusty Baker is now on the losing end of the last two instances (also losing Game 6 of the 2002 WS).
