Nick Maton hit a walkoff single to give the Phillies a much-needed 7-6 win over the Cincinnati Reds. The Phillies are now 68-55.
Philadelphia Phillies' Nick Maton center, celebrates with teammates after hitting a game-winning RBI-single against Cincinnati Reds pitcher Alexis Diaz during the ninth inning.About 20 seconds before the bottom of the ninth inning on Tuesday night, Bryson Stott and Nick Maton were taking swings in the indoor batting cages, trying to stay ready to pinch hit.Maton obliged. He ran to the bathroom as Stott stepped up to the plate after Jean Segura’s leadoff walk.
It was the Phillies’ third blown save in the past three games, counting two in Sunday’s 10-9 loss to the New York Mets.Initially, it seemed like the Phillies were going to be on the wrong side of history. Nick Lodolo had them hitless through five innings, after he’d held them scoreless through seven innings in a 1-0 Reds win in Cincinnati last week. But in the sixth inning, after the Reds had broken a scoreless tie with three runs off Ranger Suárez, the Phillies’ offense came alive.
When Suárez ran into some command issues in the sixth inning, Plassmeyer found himself pitching on a big league mound for the first time in his life, but he looked steady as can be. After Suárez gave the Reds a 3-0 lead, and loaded the bases with two outs, Plassmeyer struck out Austin Romine to end the inning. From there, he induced two flyouts and a groundout for a 1-2-3 seventh inning.
