Anyone who stayed up late to witness Giants catcher Patrick Bailey’s unbelievable walk-off inside-the-park home run probably was glad they didn’t go to bed early.

Except for Philadelphia Phillies fans, of course.

Those who did stay awake had plenty to say on social media, including NBA star and Phillies fan Joel Embiid, who was left in disbelief.

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!

THAT’S SIX OF SEVEN, FOLKS!

KRUKOW, WE DIDN’T SEE IT COMING EITHER! HEY PATRICK BAILEY, HEAD DOWN TO PERRY’S! YOU’RE EATING FOR FREE TONIGHT! #SFGiants

So those are real bricks at Oracle Park. What a bounce for the Giants.

You gotta see how the Phillies just lost…

Needless to say, walk-off inside-the-park home runs don’t happen every day, so Bailey’s unbelievable hit sparked some crazy stats that were shared on social media as well.

Patrick Bailey had the fourth walk-off inside-the-park homer in franchise history. The last was the legendary Angel Pagan homer in 2013. He’s the first Giants catcher with an inside-the-park homer since 1984 (Bob Brenly).

#SFGiants Patrick Bailey just hit the first walk-off inside-the-park home run when trailing by multiple runs since Bob Dernier on May 15, 1989.

Dernier, of course, did it for the Phillies… to beat the Giants, because baseball happens.

Patrick Bailey’s walk-off inside-the-park home run would have been an over-the-fence home run in all 29 other ballparks https://t.co/m8jDMsEfp5

Lawrence Butler: leadoff inside-the-park home run
