Chicago White Sox at Philadelphia Phillies: Final Score & Recap

The Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Chicago White Sox 9-5 on June 7, 2026 at Citizens Bank Park, pulling away from a game that the DiamondIQ model had opened as a modest 56% home-win proposition and finished at 100% certainty for Philadelphia. The Phillies built their advantage through a series of high-leverage swings across the early innings, with the home side responding effectively each time Chicago attempted to seize control.

The decisive moments hinged on several plays that shifted win probability in significant increments. Randal Grichuk's fifth-inning single off Tim Mayza represented the largest single swing of the game at +14.0%, briefly tightening Chicago's deficit and giving the White Sox their best late foothold. The Phillies, however, had already done considerable damage by that point. Rafael Marchán's second-inning home run off David Sandlin added +13.3% to Philadelphia's win probability, and Brandon Marsh followed with a solo shot off Sandlin in the third worth +10.6%. The fifth inning proved decisive for the Phillies as well, with Alec Bohm's double off Tyler Davis adding +11.9% and Bryson Stott's subsequent single off Davis contributing another +10.8%, effectively closing the door on Chicago's rally.

Brandon Marsh led all position players by wide margins, finishing with a combined +23.5% WPA and +1.9 RE24, anchoring the Phillies lineup across multiple plate appearances. Alec Bohm was nearly as impactful at +15.8% WPA and +1.8 RE24, while Grichuk's +14.9% WPA stood as the best individual performance for Chicago despite the loss. On the mound, José Alvarado paced Philadelphia's relievers with +6.4% WPA, with Orion Kerkering and Jonathan Bowlan providing additional stability as the Phillies completed the final innings without further issue.
