Summary
The Nationals’ playoff hopes took a brutal hit as Brad Lord, their ace reliever, unraveled in the ninth, surrendering six runs in just two-thirds of an inning after a stunning collapse that included back-to-back homers and a game-tying blast. With the Phillies exploding for eight runs in the inning — the second time this has happened against them — the Nationals’ slim playoff window grew even tighter, forcing manager Blake Butera to stress resilience as they battle for their divisional fate.
