A controversial call at home plate was the difference as the Phillies beat the Braves.

Alec Bohm doubled off Braves closer Will Smith to begin the ninth, advanced to third on a bunt and scored to make it 7-6 on Gregorius' fly to shallow left. Marcell Ozuna's throw bounced twice before Bohm was initially called safe — even though it appeared he didn't get his foot on the plate against catcher Travis d'Arnaud's tag attempt.

Homering for the second straight night, Harper took reliever Nate Jones deep with an opposite-field solo shot to left to make it 6-5. Acuna's fourth homer, coming in the bottom half of the inning to make it 6-all, sailed 428 feet into centre field off reliever Sam Coonrod. The Braves went up 3-0 in the first. Acuna reached on an infield single, and Albies hit his first homer before d'Arnaud doubled and scored on Dansby Swanson's single.

The Braves answered with a run to make it 5-4 in the bottom of the fourth when Cristian Pache doubled, advanced on a bunt and scored on Acuna's sacrifice fly.
