In a thrilling finish, the Philadelphia Phillies triumphed over the Boston Red Sox, 3-2, thanks to a rare walk-off catcher interference call in the 10th inning. This game marked the first instance of such a call leading to a victory in Major League Baseball since 1971. The Red Sox failed to capitalize on a bases-loaded situation, allowing the Phillies to set up for the winning run.

With runners on all bases and no outs, stress mounted for the Red Sox as reliever Jordan Hicks walked Otto Kemp and intentionally walked Max Kepler. In a pivotal moment, Carlos Narváez, the Red Sox catcher, was ruled to have interfered with Edmundo Sosa's swing, leading to an automatic run for the Phillies. This outcome is a reminder that every detail counts in tight pennant races.
