Bryson Stott sparks late Phillies rally vs. Mets closer Edwin Díaz in extra-inning victory

The Phillies used 12 position players and used six pitchers in a victory that tested one of their biggest assets: their depth.

NEW YORK — The trumpets blared, the music played, and Mr. and Mrs. Met danced on the dugout. Then, after the coolest closer entrance was complete, the Phillies coolly sent Edwin Díaz back to the dugout.able to only pinch hit in the ninth inning, the Phillies rallied from two runs down to tie the game against Díaz, then won in the 10th, 5-4, in the opener of a two-game series Monday night at Citi Field.

Díaz hit Alec Bohm, apparently on the fingers of his left hand below the knob of the bat, forcing in a run. Harper struck out, but the game extended to the bottom of the ninth. Depth is a big difference between these Phillies, off to a 29-13 start, and their recent predecessors. It’s being tested now, and it delivered in a massive way against the Mets.

Not that anyone remembered after the mayhem of the ninth inning, but Cristopher Sánchez started and held the Phillies in the game despite a four-batter spell in the third inning when he couldn’t find the plate with Google Maps.
