Daily News | Craig Kimbrel blows save, but Phillies’ bats spark comeback 8-5 win in extra innings
CLEVELAND — Craig Kimbrel was 16 for 16 in save opportunities before he stepped onto the mound on Sunday afternoon during the ninth inning in what would become an 8-5 Phillies victory. He threw a four-seam fastball down the middle to David Fry, who promptly launched it to the left field stands. The game was tied, 4-4, and Kimbrel had his first blown save of the season. He struck out Will Brennan in the next at-bat to end the inning.
The Guardians didn’t make it easy on them. Jeff Hoffman took the mound for the Phillies in the bottom of the 10th and recorded no outs. With ghost runner Will Brennan standing on second, he allowed a walk, and then an RBI single to score Brennan. He allowed another walk to load the bases. At that point, Thomson pulled him for Yunior Marte, who was given the unenviable task of facing José Ramirez with the bases loaded and no outs.
On Sunday, a pop-up dropped in the sixth inning, but this time, it was hit by Marsh. Guardians left fielder Steven Kwan, third baseman Ramirez and shortstop Tyler Freeman went running after it. Ramirez had it on the cusp of his glove but the ball fell out. Realmuto scored the go-ahead run to give the Phillies a 4-3 lead.
He seemed to think it was foul, but the ball was called fair. Regardless, Harper did not run. But the groundout got the job done. He stood by home plate as Kyle Schwarber scored to tie the game, 3-3.
