The Phillies clinched playoff birth and they did it in walk-off fashion! Nothing better than getting to celebrate at your home ballpark. Bottom of the tenth inning, Johan Rojas up to the plate, singled up the middle to win the game.
The game was tied up at zero until Brandon Marsh decided to take matters into his own hands and hit a solo home run to right-center field. What a legend! But it really was the rookie, Rojas, that got the fans excited.
We celebrated big time because the Phils are going BACK to the postseason!

Pretty epic to lock your spot into the 2023 Postseason with a walk-off at home of all places. Pretty cool. The Postseason starts on Tuesday, October 3rd, and the Phillies will be at home.
Phillies Playoff Schedule
The Major League Baseball playoffs kick off with the Wild Card round on Tuesday, October 3rd. The Philadelphia Phillies have locked in the fourth seed in the playoffs (the top Wild Card spot) and will take on the fifth seed. They could end up playing any team including the Chicago Cubs, Miami Marlins (division rival), or the Cincinnati Reds but most likely the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Both the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves have secured byes in the first round of the National League side of the bracket. The Braves will play the winner of the fourth and fifth-seeded game and the Dodgers will play the winner of the Brewers and sixth-seed matchup.
Phillies Home Games
The Phillies will host the Wild Card round (which is the best of three) and all the games will be at home, which is incredible. Last year, they didn’t have the same advantage and still made it to the World Series! Insane. Love this team.
