Bohm's 10th-Inning Triple Ends a Wild One, 7-6

Alec Bohm tripled to center in the 10th inning, scoring two runs to flip Philadelphia's win probability from 64% to 100% and seal a 7-6 walk-off win over St. Louis. It was the kind of at-bat that erases everything that came before it — and a lot happened before it.

St. Louis came out swinging. Joshua Baez put a 360-foot shot to right center in the first inning, Walker scored ahead of him, and just like that it was 2-0 Cardinals before Philadelphia had even settled in. The Phillies answered quickly — Marsh doubled to right to score Stott, then Realmuto doubled to left to score Marsh, and the game was tied at two by the end of the second. Philadelphia grabbed its first lead in the third when Bohm singled to right to score Arraez, making it 3-2. The early innings looked like a pitchers' nightmare: Hunter Dobbins lasted just 4.0 innings for St. Louis, allowing 3 earned runs on 5 hits and 3 walks. Jesus Luzardo was sharper — 9 strikeouts over 5.2 innings — but still gave up 4 earned runs on 6 hits before exiting.

The sixth inning was the game's most chaotic stretch. Jordan Walker answered Bohm's go-ahead single with a 392-foot homer to right center, putting St. Louis back on top 4-3. Philadelphia didn't flinch. Realmuto doubled to left to score Bohm, tying it at four. Then a Crawford sacrifice fly to center scored Marsh, and suddenly the Phillies led 5-4 heading into the late innings. St. Louis clawed back in the eighth — Torres singled to center to score Burleson and tie it at five. The game went to extras knotted, and St. Louis struck first in the 10th: Fermín singled to left, Burleson scored, and the Cardinals led 6-5. It looked, for a moment, like St. Louis had stolen it.

Then Bohm happened. His triple to center scored Harper and Sosa, swinging Philadelphia's win probability from 64% to 100% in a single swing. Final: PHI 7, STL 6. The story of the night, it appears, was Philadelphia's refusal to let any Cardinals lead stick for long — they were tied or ahead after every St. Louis surge until Fermín's go-ahead single, and even that lasted less than half an inning. Bohm finished 3-for-5 with 3 RBI. Walker went 3-for-5 with a homer, 2 RBI, and 2 runs for St. Louis — a genuinely excellent night that ended on the wrong side of the scoreboard. Jhoan Duran closed it out for Philadelphia with a clean inning, 2 strikeouts, and no damage. Ten innings, 13 combined runs, and a walk-off triple. August baseball at its most unhinged.
