Christopher Sanchez pitched six-plus innings for the Phillies. The Cardinals' Kyle Leahy kept Philadelphia scoreless through four innings before the game shifted dramatically in the ninth. Per multiple outlets reporting the game, the Cardinals had held the lead entering the final frame before the Phillies' rally ended it.
