rewrite this title Deadspin | Giants walk off Phillies on Patrick Bailey’s 3-run, inside-the-park homer

Patrick Bailey bounced a three-run, inside-the-park home run high off the right-field wall with one out in the last of the ninth inning Tuesday night, delivering the San Francisco Giants a 4-3 walk-off victory over the visiting Philadelphia Phillies.

A two-run home run by Kyle Schwarber had given the Phillies a 3-1 lead in the seventh, an advantage the Philadelphia bullpen carried into the ninth.

Closer Jordan Ramano (1-4), who had entered the game with one out in the eighth, immediately got himself into a jam in the ninth when Casey Schmitt opened with a double.

One out later, Wilmer Flores singled to center, setting the stage for Bailey, whose blast hit near the top of the 24-foot brick wall and caromed along the warning track toward left field, rolling past center fielder Brandon Marsh in the process.

The catcher easily circled the bases to complete the Giants’ ninth walk-off win of the season and give San Francisco a fourth straight victory.

Ryan Walker (2-3), who needed just one pitch to get the final out in the top of the ninth, was credited with the win.

After starters Taijuan Walker and Robbie Ray had left a 1-1 game, the Phillies went ahead for the first time in the seventh on Schwarber’s 28th homer into the water beyond the right-field wall at Oracle Park, giving the visitors a 3-1 lead.

Walker pitched the first four innings, allowing one run and two hits. He walked two and struck out three.

He surrendered the Giants’ first run in the second, when he walked Mike Yastrzemski leading off before serving up consecutive one-out singles to Jung Hoo Lee and Dominic Smith, the latter plating the run.

The Phillies evened the score in the sixth and knocked out All-Star Ray in the process. Otto Kemp’s two-out double ended Ray’s shutout bid, driving in Alec Bohm, who had walked in front of a Nick Castellanos single.

Ray was pulled at that point, charged with one run on four hits in 5 2/3 innings. He walked three and struck out five.

Bailey and Lee had two hits apiece for the Giants, who had no extra-base hits until the ninth.

Schwarber and Castellanos collected two hits each for the Phillies, who lost to the Giants for the fourth time in five meetings this season.
