Johan Rojas flipped off his helmet halfway between first and second base, signaling he wasn’t going to slow down and round second to head to third. The pinch-runner beat the eventual throw to third base, sliding in safely, putting the tying run 90 feet away with no outs.
Rojas was pinch-running for Kyle Schwarber, who looped a leadoff single into right field in the top of the ninth inning on Thursday night with the Phillies down 5-4. Rojas dashed his way from first to third after a pickoff attempt from Rays closer Pete Fairbanks got by first baseman Junior Caminero.
