C Patrick Bailey’s Historic Inside-the-Park Home Run Ends Phillies’ Hopes in Stunning 99-Year Catcher Feat!
Romano got into trouble Tuesday on a leadoff double by Casey Schmitt. Wilmer Flores brought the winning run to the plate with a single two batters later, and Bailey needed only one pitch to hit the most chaotic fly ball of his career.

The win keeps the Giants in control of the third NL wild-card spot and five games back from the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West, a lead that peaked at nine games only five days ago. The Dodgers lost earlier Tuesday to the Milwaukee Brewers after a brilliant performance by rookie pitcher Jacob Misiorowski.
