What a 24-hour period in our nation’s capital. The Phillies once again staged a ninth inning two-out comeback to beat the Nationals. This time, it was Derek Hill doing the honors.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Pinch-hitting after Kyle Schwarber worked a 10-pitch walk, Hill locked in and delivered the greatest Phillies swing since last night.

The “Déjà vu in DC!” line by Scott Franzke was perfect. And so was Jhoan Durán, who shut down the Nats in the bottom of the inning to seal the victory.

What an incredible two nights after an almost comeback on Monday. Just an incredible series so far with one more game left against the Nats Thursday night. Then it’s off to New York.
