With the tying runs on base and no outs in the ninth inning, Jeff Francoeur of the New York Mets hits a line drive that is snagged by Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Eric Bruntlett. With the Mets using a hit and run, Brunlett turned an unassisted triple play to end the game with a 9-7 win for the Phillies. It was just the second time a game in MLB ended with an unassisted triple play.
