Bryson Stott ends the game with a nice play at third base! https://t.co/F6EswIkP0Q Via @MLB on X

What happened: Bryson Stott secured a 6-4 victory over the Miami Marlins on Tuesday, fielding a grounder at third base for the final out. The play capped a sequence of two diving stops by Stott in the ninth inning to protect the lead for reliever Brooks Raley.

Why it matters: The defensive effort preserved Raley's first save and finalized Philadelphia's comeback from an early 3-1 deficit. The same Stott who delivered a highlight-reel play for the Phillies over the weekend also sparked Tuesday's offense with a go-ahead two-run single in the sixth inning.

What to watch: Philadelphia continues its homestand as the regular season enters its final stretch.
