Sat May 03 23:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Phillies Edge Cubs in 10-Inning Thriller, 3-1

**CHICAGO, IL** – Alec Bohm’s sacrifice fly in the 10th inning secured a 3-1 victory for the Philadelphia Phillies over the Chicago Cubs Sunday night, giving them the series win. Trea Turner fueled the Phillies’ offense with three hits and two RBIs.

Aaron Nola delivered a stellar performance on the mound for Philadelphia, allowing only three hits over seven innings. This win marks a significant turnaround for Nola, who had lost his first five starts of the season. The Phillies capitalized on bases loaded in the 10th, with Bohm’s crucial fly ball scoring Nick Castellanos. Turner then added an RBI single, extending the lead. José Alvarado earned the win, and Jordan Romano secured his second save.

Despite a strong pitching performance by Jameson Taillon, who pitched seven innings of five-hit ball and achieved his 1000th career strikeout, the Cubs’ offense couldn’t overcome the Phillies. Taillon’s impressive 2.08 ERA over his last three starts was overshadowed by the loss. Chicago’s closer, Ryan Pressly, made his return after a knee procedure, successfully navigating the ninth inning. The Cubs scored their only run in the second inning on a double by Pete Crow-Armstrong.

Both teams enjoy a day off Monday before resuming their schedules. The Phillies will host the Washington Nationals Tuesday, while the Cubs travel to Pittsburgh to face the Pirates.
