00:01Aaron coming off what was a good start to begin Sunday but then give him a
00:07three run home run to Josh Bell overall I give it five earned runs. Shohei Ohtani
00:11getting ready to stand in Dodgers in the traveling road grays the Phillies
00:15wearing their cream colored home uniforms. Snola kicks and deals in the
00:19pitch swing and a miss he struck him out Ohtani down swinging to begin the
00:24ballgame home with another two two to Betts punches a ground ball through the
00:30right side and he steers a base hit into right field good job by Mookie just
00:35shortening up and just shooting it over to that right side the pitch swing and a
00:39tapper out in front of the plate JT's got it fires down to second on one hop
00:43Scott Fields the throw to first out in time a whole lot going on there but
00:47unable to complete the double play but they do get the lead runner Betts for the
00:51second out. Flips that one out to center it's not deep Marsh comes running in he
00:57says he has it and he does sitting is over you know Roke he's been open to to
01:02coaching and suggestions things are a lot different for him here than they were in
01:05Japan and they've said that yeah he has been open and listening and trying to act
01:09on things and make some adjustments so we'll see how it works out this
01:12afternoon. The three two on the way and it's hit on the ground right side that's
01:16going to get through pulls it through the hole a base hit out of the reach of the
01:19diving second baseman Edmund and Schwarber with a lead off single and now Trey
01:24Turner the hitter. Turner shoots it the other way that'll be in for a base hit
01:28Hernandez takes it on. Schwarber's on his way to third the throw is cut off by
01:32Betts he's in safely. I forgot how fast he is this year. He is cat like first and third with
01:40nobody out. Shoulder high set he delivers the pitch is taken for a strike Turner a
01:46late break but he easily steals the bag and Trey Turner with another stolen base. He
01:52gets Harper swinging so he strikes out Bryce Harper for the first out. Interesting he
01:58went four splitters to Harper didn't even mess around with the fastball. Bouncer over the
02:04mound that'll get a run home. Nobody's covering first finally Hernandez gets back there. It's
02:09one nothing fills third RBI of the year for Alec Boehm. Now Max Muncy on a 2-2 from Nola.
02:16Yanks one down the line it's a fair ball and extra bases for Muncy. He was due and he's got himself a
02:24double. He gave Hernandez the tying run and scoring position here two out. He'll sway and
02:30he'll drive one down the left field side. This ball is deep. This ball is gone. It's a home run.
02:35Kike Hernandez has given the Dodgers a two to one lead with a home run just inside the left
02:42field foul ball. A home run for Kike. He went hunting first pitch and he bagged a fastball.
02:50Dodgers two Phillies one. Nine one and two for the Phillies coming up against Sasaki.
02:55Marsh swings and misses at the splitter and strikes out. So both strikeouts for Sasaki have come on the
03:00splitter. Swing and a miss at a splitter. Third strikeout. Third strikeout on the splitter. He had
03:08Schwerver completely fooled.
03:11Fly down the field. Routine for Conforto.
03:15And that is nine straight retired by Sasaki. It's a good club they have here. No doubt.
03:212-2 pitch banged in the right. That's a base hit. And Muncy is two for two.
03:26First multi-hit game of the year for Max Muncy. Law of averages, right? He does not have a single.
03:32Three hits in 23 at bats. Nola's 1-0. Ground ball. Hit towards third. Backing up Boehm. Stabs at it. He's got it.
03:40Long throw and it's right on target. There's a fine play by Alec Boehm.
03:44That's where Roeke, at least, the big differential. He gets ahead of counts. I mean, good night hitter because of the movement.
03:513-2 on the way. And he goes to the off speed and he missed with it. Harper saw it out of hand, I think. That's a leadoff walk.
03:59And now Alec Boehm to the plate. Starts him with the fastball. And it's sent to right field. Hernandez coming on. He's got it.
04:06And there's the first out. And another first pitch swinging in the air to center field. Spreading him around. Two out. Got him to chase. He strikes out Castellanos. His fourth of the game.
04:20Nola Wines. His pitch. Swung on and a ground ball to second. Backhanded by Bryson Stott. He straightens up. Throws to first.
04:28And there are two down. Here's the 2-1 pitch. And it's bounced to third. A step back for Boehm. He's got it.
04:35Long throw. It's in time again. And there is the first 1-2-3 inning of the day for Aaron Nola.
04:43Phillies down 2-1. Bottom of the fifth inning. Bottom third of the order.
04:48It's taken for a leadoff walk. Swung on. Hit in the air. Right field. Falling. Coming on. Hernandez. He pulls up. Plays it on a bounce.
04:55I don't think he got a great read on that. Looked like a pretty big swing. But it wasn't hit all that hard.
05:01And the Phillies will take it. Stott with a first hit for the Phillies since Turner's single back in the first.
05:07Well, that's going to do it. Dave Roberts is coming to get Sasaki. Sasaki is going to leave with a lead.
05:13But he is responsible for the tying and go-ahead runs on base.
05:17You know, Sasaki leaves the ball game after four innings plus two batters.
05:21And Bonda now with a chance. And the Dodgers get some more activity in the bullpen. A right-hander throwing.
05:27Here's the pitch from Bonda. Runner goes. Pitch is swung on. Line to right. Right there is Teoscar. He makes the catch.
05:33Throws back to first. Stretch. They got him! A double play! A double play to end the inning.
05:40And a bad base running by the Phillies cost them from getting the tying run to home plate.
05:45The run did not score before the out was recorded at first base. Huge double play.
05:51That'll bring up Michael Conforto, the left fielder, who's 0 for 2 today.
05:55Conforto hits a towering fly ball to right field. Castellanos going back on the track. At the wall. Goodbye!
06:03Michael Conforto with a skyscraping home run. A 3-1 lead for the Dodgers.
06:09Well, he jumped all over the cutter that was left right down the middle by Nola.
06:14And Conforto hammered it. And all the right fielder Castellanos could do was fade back and watch.
06:19In fact, that Kepler was new and sort of under the radar pick.
06:24But he said he's got to get going with the bat.
06:26And he's not going here as he swings and misses.
06:29Well, he's going, but he's going back to the dugout.
06:31That's where he's headed.
06:321-0 pitch is lifted in the air to right field.
06:35Playable for Teoscar.
06:37He's under it. Makes the catch. 2 down.
06:39Highline drive. Center field. Pajas makes the catch.
06:44Ben Kasparias retires all six that he faces.
06:48Stott, Marsh, and then Schwarber.
06:50For Vessi of this season, this will be appearance number 6.
06:541-2 to Stott.
06:55Strikes him out.
06:56Oh, man, that thing had a ton of movement to it.
07:00Almost like a boomerang for the first out of the eighth.
07:03Swung on and missed.
07:04Strike three.
07:05A low fastball.
07:07And Vessi has come out of the Dodger pen and punched out the first two men.
07:11And a 1-2 pitch.
07:13Oh, way inside.
07:14It hit him.
07:15And Vessi of plunks Schwarber.
07:17And that will put a man on and bring up Trey Turner representing the tying run here in the bottom of the eighth inning.
07:23Got him.
07:24Three Ks in the inning for Alex Vessi.
07:28After eight in Philly, Dodgers up 3-1.
07:31Tanner Scott comes on looking for his third save of the season.
07:35This will be his sixth appearance.
07:38Huge shot toward third.
07:39Oh, wow.
07:40That thing had so much spin on it.
07:43And he kind of looked like he didn't know whether to backhand it, scoop it,
07:46get in front of it, and Harper's going to reach, and the Phillies have some life.
07:51And so it's rule to hit.
07:53Palm to short.
07:54Could be two.
07:55Betts the second one.
07:56Edmond to first double play.
07:596-4-3, just like that.
08:01They're wiped clean, and the Phillies are down to their last down.
08:05This game has been a roller coaster, hadn't it?
08:08Kepler serves on the left center field.
08:10Conforto on the run.
08:11There's the ball game.
08:13Three-pitch ninth inning for Tanner Scott.
08:16He hardly blinks, and he's got the save.
08:20And the Dodgers will win this ball game by a 3-1 score.
