Freddy Galvis hit an RBI double off Jonathan Papelbon with two outs in the 10th inning to lift the Philadelphia Phillies over Washington 3-2 Sunday, ending the Nationals' seven-game winning streak.

After Bryce Harper hit a solo homer to put the Nationals up 2-1 in the top half, the Phillies rallied off their former closer. Pinch-hitter Andres Blanco hit an RBI single with two outs to tie it. He scored when Galvis drove a ball over left fielder Jayson Werth's head.

Galvis stomped on second base and players rushed from the Phillies' dugout chase him down to celebrate.
