Phillies Win 3-2 Over Red Sox on Rare Walk-Off Catcher Interference

The Philadelphia Phillies secured a dramatic 3-2 walk-off victory against the Boston Red Sox on Monday night, thanks to an extremely rare catcher’s interference call. Edmundo Sosa, who entered as a pinch-hitter, triggered the winning run in the 10th inning by making contact with catcher Carlos Narvaez's glove on a check swing, marking the first walk-off catcher’s interference in MLB since 1971. Despite strong pitching performances from both teams, including Walker Buehler for Boston and Zack Wheeler for Philadelphia, the game was decided by this unusual play. Narvaez, who had multiple errors and a passed ball during the game, took responsibility for the costly mistake. Going into their next matchup on Tuesday, the Phillies, led by Cristopher Sánchez with an impressive 2.50 ERA, hold a stronger record and home advantage over the Red Sox, who have struggled on the road against National League East opponents. Both teams feature key players like Trevor Story and Alex Bregman for Boston and Kyle Schwarber for Philadelphia, setting the stage for a competitive rematch.
