Phillies persist in extra innings to beat Mets and Max Scherzer to open a key series at Citi Field
NEW YORK — The Phillies and Mets stayed tied, 1-1, from the second inning until the 10th inning, but it was sac fly that won it for the Phillies, 2-1, in the end.
No play embodied that urgency more than Matt Vierling’s throw in the bottom of the ninth, with runners on first and third and one out. With the game on the line, Vierling caught a Daniel Vogelbach fly ball and gunned it home in time to tag Marte out at the plate. Stott reached base in his first four plate appearances — with a double, a hit by pitch, and two singles — and finished his dayMore impressive was that Stott did most of this against Scherzer, who entered Friday’s game with a 1.98 ERA. Stott has hit well against Scherzer all season; he’s now 6-for-7 against the three-time Cy Young award winner for his career.
