Monday Night's Walk-off


Andrew McCutchen came through in the clutch for the Phillies to turn a Monday night loss into a stirring victory. Facing Brad Hand with two on, one out and his team down by two in the bottom of the 9th, the veteran outfielder crushed the first pitch for a three-run walk-off homer, his first as a Phillie (and eighth of his long and productive career). 
Despite season-long bullpen issues, the Phils are now just 3-1/2 games back of the division-leading Mets. But is that close enough for ownership and the front office to bring in a pricey veteran before Friday's trade deadline?
