The Red Sox lost to the Phillies 3-2 due to a catcher's interference ruling in the 10th inning, a rare event occurring only twice in Major League history since 1920. In a high-pressure situation with the bases loaded and no outs, infielder Edmundo Sosa's swing inadvertently brushed the glove of catcher Carlos Narváez, leading to the controversial call after a review. Manager Alex Cora acknowledged the rule was correctly applied, while Narváez expressed his disappointment, feeling the losing call affected the game. Some players suggested a need for leeway in interpreting the rule.
"That's a rule, that's why we got it. They got it right. We just lost a game," said Red Sox manager Alex Cora.
"We don't want to lose a game, especially in that way," said catcher Carlos Narváez. "It sucks."
Narváez noted, "It was so late. I had the ball, then I felt the contact. Really weird."
Pitcher Walker Buehler suggested, "I think there needs to be a little bit of [leeway on] how far back that stuff happens."
