The Philadelphia Phillies made postseason history Wednesday, beating the Atlanta Braves 4-3 in 10 innings on the first game-ending Automated Ball-Strike challenge overturn in MLB playoffs history.
With two outs in the bottom of the 10th, plate umpire Adam Beck called Andrew Painter’s 0-2 fastball to pinch-hitter Dominic Smith a ball. Painter and catcher J.T. Realmuto immediately challenged, and ABS showed the pitch clipped the strike zone for strike three. Sportsnet shared a clip on X, formerly Twitter, as the Phillies closed out a season-saving Game 2 victory.
The following story is in development and will be updated shortly.
