PHILADELPHIA – A playoff chase has J.T. Realmuto feeling energized.

He was one of four players who homered for the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday night as they beat the Atlanta Braves 9-5.

Cesar Hernandez had a homer and an RBI single, and Adam Haseley and Jean Segura also went deep for the Phillies, who remained two games behind the Chicago Cubs and the Milwaukee Brewers for the Nationals League’s second wild-card spot.

Philadelphia blew the game open with three runs in the eighth off right-hander Anthony Swarzak, thanks to Realmuto’s 25th homer of the season, a two-run shot, and Sean Rodriguez’s RBI double.

It was the fifth homer in the past eight games and 10th in 26 contests for Realmuto, whom the Phillies have leaned on heavily this season. The catcher appeared in his 138th game Thursday.
