Michael Harris II Home Run Tonight

There weren't a lot of home runs on the spectacle for fans at Citizens Bank Park. The lone home run in Sunday's game was from Michael Harris II, who crushed the long ball against Aaron Nola in the top of the third inning. It was a 413-foot home run into center field.

Nola allowed another run in the fourth inning, as Whit Merrifield grounded into shortstop giving enough time for Matt Olson to reach home and take the Braves up by 2-0.

The Phillies tied the game 2-2 in the sixth inning on Nick Castellanos' two-run RBI double, on which Bryce Harper and Trea Turner reached home.

While the Phillies are all but confirmed to go into the postseason, leading by 7 games in the NL East, the Braves are holding onto the third and last Wild Card spot with the New York Mets (1.0 GB) and the Chicago Cubs (3.0 GB) not far away to topple them.
