The Phillies have a chance to eliminate the Braves—the defending World Series champions and an NL East rival—from the playoffs with a win on Saturday. Catcher J.T. Realmuto just gave the team a huge lift with an inside-the park home run.
With Collin McHugh on the mound for Atlanta, Realmuto smoked one to center. Michael Harris appeared to have the ball tracked, but could not quite reach it in the air. As Harris collided with the wall, the ball caromed off of it behind him, rolling far away towards right field.
Realmuto never slowed down, and legged out the inside the park home run, sliding into home well before the ball reached the plate on the relay throw.
