He wriggled out of a few jams to do it. A double play from Alec Bohm \u2014 who fielded a grounder, stepped on third, and fired to first base \u2014 helped Rangel leave two in the third. Rangel also recovered from back-to-back walks in the fourth with a groundout that ended the inning.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The Phillies led early, thanks to an RBI double from Bryce Harper in the third, but the bats fell silent after that. It gave the Pirates time to break through, which they did against the Phillies bullpen. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Down the line<br \/>Off the wall<br \/>On the board! pic.twitter.com\/XLpfh5b8gz<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Philadelphia Phillies (@Phillies) July 2, 2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Pittsburgh tied things up with one run on three hits against Tim Mayza in the fifth.
