First Inning


The Phillies set the tone early with a strong start in the first inning. They managed to score one run on three hits, putting immediate pressure on the Yanks' defense. Trea Turner was instrumental in this early push with his consistent batting performance.


Fourth Inning


By the fourth inning, both teams had settled into their rhythms. The Phils extended their lead by adding two more runs thanks to strategic hitting and aggressive base running. Meanwhile, the Bronx Bombers responded with one run of their own but were unable to capitalize further despite having three hits in this period.


Seventh Inning


The seventh inning proved pivotal for Philadelphia as they unleashed an offensive barrage that netted four runs on three hits and took advantage of a crucial error by New York's defense. This explosive display effectively put them out of reach for the home team.


Yankees' Response


Despite trailing behind, New York showed resilience in later innings. They added two runs in the seventh and another run in the eighth but couldn't close the gap significantly against Philadelphia's robust pitching lineup led by Ranger Suárez and Seth Johnson.


Final Innings


Innings eight and nine saw both teams striving hard; however, it was evident that Philly's earlier efforts had already sealed their fate as victors of this encounter without any additional scoring from either side during these final moments.
