Alec Bohm’s left foot may or may not have touched the home plate at the top of the ninth inning on Sunday night at Truist Park. He scored in both directions.
Bohm’s controversial run saved the Phillies series with a 7-6 victory over the Braves. Bohm doubled to the center-right field to start the ninth. Jean Segura’s field for the second advanced Bohm on the third. Didi Gregorius then hit a ball in the shallow left field, just 200 meters from the motherboard. Phillies’ third baseman Dusty Wathan sent Bohm. The brave left-hander Marcell Ozuna threw the plate. The ball landed at the feet of Bohm, who was completely unmarked in the box. But television reruns appeared to show that Bohm’s leg may have missed the plate.
Replay review said that the song will remain as it was called.
Hector Neris launched a ninth without a score, while the Phillies avoided sweeping the series.
