The Philadelphia Phillies made history Monday night with a walk-off win via a catcher's interference against the Boston Red Sox, becoming the first team to do so in over 50 years.

They currently sit in first place in the NL East (-1320 to make the playoffs, per Caesars ), though that race figures to go down to the wire with the Mets.
