With the score tied at 4-4 and Mets reliever Sean Reid-Foley on the mound in the 10th, the Phillies had runners on first and third when Stott hit a fly ball to right fielder Starling Marte, scoring Bryce Harper. It was Stott’s second RBI of the night.
The first came in the ninth inning, when Stott led off with a homer against Mets closer Edwin Díaz to make it a one-run game. Kody Clemens then singled and Brandon Marsh walked before Díaz recorded two outs to come one out away from his sixth save of the season.
But after walking Whit Merrifield to load the bases, he hit Alec Bohm with a pitch, scoring Clemens with the tying run after the call was upheld following a Mets challenge. It was Díaz’s second blown save of the season.
Stott’s heroics an inning later helped Philadelphia earn its 10th comeback victory of the season.
