The Phillies lost their third game in a row and sixth in their last seven games by a final score of 5-4 in Pittsburgh on a walk-off sacrifice fly. The game was tied 4-4 going into the ninth inning, but the Phillies couldn’t put the ball in play in their half and their closer Jordan Romano as well as their outfield defense let them down once again in the bottom half as two balls that appeared catchable dropped in front of Max Kepler and Brandon Marsh to set up the winning sac fly.
Back and forth
