The Phillies did something NO team in MLB history has ever done — hitting go-ahead home runs in the 9th inning of three consecutive games, sweeping Washington in dramatic fashion. On Tuesday, down to their final out with two outs in the 9th, Trea Turner sparked an 8-run, 8-hit explosion — the first time in franchise history the Phillies scored 8+ runs with two outs in the 9th inning, leading to a stunning 14–9 victory. Wednesday saw Derek Hill deliver a pinch-hit two-run homer to flip the script again. Then on Thursday, Bryce Harper silenced the Nationals crowd with a go-ahead blast as part of a five-run 9th inning in a 10–5 win. The Phillies scored 15 ninth-inning runs across those three wins.

Marsh ranked second among all NL outfielders in Phase 1 voting, batting .321 with 11 home runs and an .860 OPS.

Bryce Harper also fell short of Phase 2, finishing third at first base. Both Schwarber and Harper remain in contention as reserve selections.
