New York Yankees at Philadelphia Phillies: Final Score & Recap

The New York Yankees defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 1-0 on July 24, 2026, at Citizens Bank Park, handing Philadelphia a shutout loss despite the Phillies entering the night as slight favorites. The DiamondIQ model's estimate had Philadelphia's pre-game home win probability at 52%, but that figure fell steadily through nine innings before reaching 0% at the final out.

The game's lone run came in the top of the fourth inning, when Paul Goldschmidt hit a home run off Jesús Luzardo, a swing that shifted win probability by 11.3 points in New York's favor. Philadelphia mounted its most credible threat in the bottom of the eighth, when Edmundo Sosa's single off Brent Headrick moved the needle 8.7 points toward the Phillies, briefly suggesting a comeback. But Brent Headrick proved decisive in that frame, retiring Kyle Schwarber on a groundout that swung win probability 25.8 points against Philadelphia, then getting Trea Turner to line out for an additional 15.5-point shift. Headrick finished as the top pitcher by win probability added at plus-32.7%, with Cam Schlittler close behind at plus-31.9% and Luzardo contributing plus-21.4% despite surrendering the home run.

The most consequential at-bat of the night came in the bottom of the ninth, when Alec Bohm grounded out against David Bednar to end the game, a play that registered a 31.6-point win-probability swing in the batting-team's direction — meaning Philadelphia's last, best chance evaporated on contact. Bohm led all position players with a plus-25.1% WPA on the night despite that final out, a reflection of his earlier work keeping Philadelphia in contention. The Yankees finished with three hits and no errors; Philadelphia collected four hits but committed one error, stranding enough baserunners to fall in a one-run game that offered remarkably little margin throughout.
