PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Scott Kingery timed a diving catch just right. He hustled around the bases for a thrilling inside-the-park home run.

Kingery was in the right place for the Phillies – except in the clubhouse.

“Go stand in your locker. Have you ever done this before,” J.T. Realmuto kidded his teammate as a media scrum spilled a few lockers down.

Kingery hopes to keep the Phillies moving in their playoff push.

Corey Dickerson homered twice to help Philadelphia’s wild-card chase and the Phillies hit five home runs overall in a 6-5 win over the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night.
