Turner!
It's the third anniversary of Nick's most famous home run.
Rojas swings at what was clearly ball four, hits a slow grounder to third, and beats it out for an infield single.
Runners first and third, one out.
RBI single for Schwarber. 5-3. 1st and 3rd one out.
And Schwarb scores on a SF. good hustle good slide
heck yes
three-run homer, Stott. 10-3. that ought to change the pitching from here too.
Bohm had a single and Harper a walk before the sac fly by Castellanos.
Stott follows with 3-run home run.
Turner follows with solo home run.

2nd HR of the inning for Turner
Now avoid the 8 run inning in answer like the Nationals answered last night's 6 run inning with a 6 of their own.
Newly recalled Bellatti in to pitch the bottom of the 8th.
Trea Turner is the 3rd player in Phillies franchise history to homer twice in the same inning.Von Hayes vs NYM (1st inning) on 6/11/1985.Andy Seminick vs CIN (8th inning) on 6/2/1949.— PhilliesNotes ( @PhilliesNotes ) August 19, 2023

Position player pitching for the Nats
Phillies leave the bases loaded (Rojas walk, Harper HBP, Castro single) after Cave led off the inning with a home run.
Bottom of the 9th coming up. Ortiz to pitch.
They just struggle with the bases loaded
Stott hit a high pitch out of the strike zone to end that inning.
Now Ortiz gives up a hit to the opposing pitcher.
FINAL
Phillies 12-16-2Nationals 3-9-1
Dominguez gets the win, record now 3-3. There is no save.
Serious question how will the teams get to Williamsport?
I would guess by bus. Anywhere you fly would end up with a bus ride anyway. But I have no information as to the travel plans.
Tmac said they arent leaving til tomorrow morning. So maybe an early morning bus ride..
