Phillies overcome 4-run deficit to beat Rays 7-6 in extras

The Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Tampa Bay Rays 7-6 in extra innings on Thursday night in Tampa, Florida, overcoming a four-run deficit.
The Rays led 5-1 after home runs by Junior Caminero and Yandy Diaz, but the Phillies staged a comeback fueled by Bryson Stott's three-run homer in the eighth inning.
Kyle Schwarber singled to continue his streak of reaching base in 43 consecutive games before being replaced by pinch runner Johan Rojas, who advanced on a botched pickoff attempt by Pete Fairbanks and helped set up the tying run in the ninth inning.
In the 10th inning, both Brandon Marsh and Trea Turner collected two hits each and contributed RBIs, as Marsh’s double to left-center brought home pinch-runner Edmundo Sosa, and Turner’s subsequent single scored Marsh.
The Phillies' victory marked their ninth win in 11 games while the Rays lost their seventh straight at Steinbrenner Field and their ninth consecutive game against Philadelphia.
