00:01Well we have arrived here to the West Coast and now the series shifts the Dodgers are the home team
00:06but the story Jeff is the Phillies right now they are facing elimination for the first time and the top
00:12three in their batting order deserves a lot of the criticism they have really struggled so far. Meanwhile for the
00:18Dodgers this is a team that is rolling right now they're four and oh in the postseason on the mound
00:22tonight one of their many aces but he has been outstanding in the postseason Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets the start one
00:28week ago tonight versus
00:30Cincinnati he struck out nine and six and two thirds innings he's back 30 starts is the biggest number for
00:35him this season Phillies decked out in their powder blues as Turner drops a butt down right back to Yamamoto
00:43and that's how game three starts on a 1 3 put out Phillies fans know this story well but the
00:51powder blues are a bit of a home thing now for the Phillies this is a vintage look that takes
00:58you back to the 80s
00:59the Phillies last time the Phillies last time the Phillies wore these uniforms on the road in a postseason game
01:04or even in a postseason game was 1983 Schwarber on the first pitch bounces one over to Freeman and Yamamoto
01:12has been involved in both outs to start this game a 1 3 out of 3 1 to start us
01:17off tonight and Schwarber 0 for 8 in the series two outs for Bryce Harper Harper has one hit in
01:23the series one for seven
01:25three and Harper draws a walk so from 0 2 to a walk Harper is aboard Phillies with a base
01:33runner with two away as Alec Boehm bats for the first time with two outs and a man on and
01:38he's hits that one sharply into center field pie is going back and he makes a play nice running catch
01:44by Andy Poe has two strike line drive off the bat a boom and ultimately works the scoreless first
01:50the Phillies have gone with Aaron Nola for this game three start with their season on the line Phillies are
01:56going on what they saw in his last start versus what they saw throughout the regular season perfect world for
02:01Rob Thompson that's the way it'll go Nola to Suarez now they want Suarez to start a clean inning Yohei
02:08Ohtani digs into the left handed batter's box to lead off he's one for nine in the series with six
02:13strikeouts swing and a high pop up this one's in the left field and Max Kepler
02:19Butler standing and a high pop up this one's in the right field and Max Kepler standing and waiting now
02:20comes in three steps makes the catch and a pop out will begin things here in the bottom of the
02:25first bets like Ohtani has not really gotten rolling in this series he is one for nine bets to the
02:33right center field Marsh charging he dives can't make the catch it goes all the way to the wall bets
02:38is going to have at least two he rounds second he's going for third there is no throw a foot
02:44first slide safely and a triple for Mookie Betts
02:48and what a mistake from Brandon Marsh in right center field a superman dive to try and get it but
02:54Mo that seemed like a fool's errand and the RBI machine in the postseason Teoscar Hernandez is at the plate
03:01and a swing and a miss big curveball from Nola that's a big pitch early Carrera Nola and out number
03:09two Freeman looking for his first RBI of this postseason the Dodgers have put a ton of runs on the
03:15board and Freeman's gotten his hits
03:17and hit it spiked that curveball and he hits Freddie Freeman Tanner Banks already loosening at the Philly bullpen first
03:25and third we're in the first here is Will Smith first two games of the series Smith came in in
03:30the middle of the game trying to get his legs back under him he has missed a lot of time
03:34with a hand fracture on his throwing hand those are the postseason career numbers for Nola all as a Philly
03:41the 3-2 on the way and it's taken for a cold third strike breaking ball
03:46on the inside part of the plate and Smith caught looking a pair of strikeouts after the triple with one
03:53out and Nola gets out of the jam and it'll be Kike Hernandez he is four for eleven lifetime against
04:00Aaron Nola with three home runs Kike Hernandez leads off first ball swinging and Castellanos fighting with it makes the
04:10catch that was in fair territory
04:12Oh he lost it in the twilight man I don't know how he rescued himself but he sure did the
04:17Phillies win we'll do it again tomorrow once he hits it sharply Castellanos makes the catch Castellanos has got to
04:24be like man just finding me right now get away from me and a swing and a miss Nola off
04:30to a great start giving the Phillies exactly what they hoped for he survived the first he retires the side
04:38in order with his third game Phillies are going to stick to their plans
04:41a lot of handshakes a lot of handshakes you get that kind of greeting from the manager that's it Nola
04:47is going to be out that was the coordinator plan just one time through the lineup I know we're at
04:51the nine hole hitter but I'd rather Ranger start an inning than come in you know kind of dirtier or
04:57in the middle of an inning and you heard it from the skipper the plan all along and Aaron Nola
05:01gives the Phillies two scoreless here is Suarez and on the first pitch Tommy Edmund is going to send one
05:07out of here what a greeting that was
05:10and it is the Dodgers who strike first second postseason home run this year for Tommy Edmund Tommy Edmund ambushes
05:21Rangers Suarez and the Dodgers have the first lead in game three Tommy tanks came to play one out bases
05:30empty Mookie Betts for a second time swung on line towards left coming on Kepler still coming he lays out
05:36makes the diving catch
05:37and it's full out dive on the dead run by Max Kepler in a great play to take a hit
05:43away from Mookie Betts here's to Oscar Hernandez with two out jam shot little bouncer out to stop and Ranger
05:50Suarez settles down gets through the inning retires the next three hitters Yamamoto has retired seven straight as he faces
05:57Kyle Schwarber he has started this game with three no hit innings and here's Schwarber Schwarber grounded out his first
06:03time
06:03time up Dodger starters have been a major story Oh Schwarber gonna send one way out of here how far
06:11will it fly my goodness Kyle Schwarber with a tape measure shot up on top of the pavilion and right
06:20that is one of the biggest bombs you will ever see Kyle Schwarber his first postseason home run of the
06:28year
06:29it's his twenty second of his career and with a lightning strike the Phillies tie it up at one four
06:36hundred fifty five feet hundred seventeen off the bat well the first home run for the Phillies this postseason if
06:44you're ever going to come out of an 0 for 22 slump that's how you do it if you're Kyle
06:48Schwarber tie game and now Harper on the ground through they had to shift on and Harper defies it he's
06:55got a base hit so back to back hits Schwarber's
06:59home run ties it now Harper with a single so now runner at first Alec Boehm is the batter batting
07:04from the right side and Boehm back up the middle and a base hit and Harper's on his way to
07:11third the throw and it gets away from Muncie and it goes into the dugout and Harper will score Boehm
07:18will go to third and the Phillies have taken the lead it's two to one so Pa has his throw
07:24comes in Muncie can't handle it the Phillies have
07:28to grab the lead infield in for the Dodgers the Phillies strike here to fly ball to left this is
07:35going to be deep enough bomb tags the catch is made and Alec Boehm will score the run so it
07:42is the Phillies who execute here they've scored three runs sacrifice fly in an RBI for Brandon Marsh it's three
07:50to one and now the Dodgers with two outs start to get a churning a little bit the Dodgers have
07:55the tying runs on for Andy Pajas
07:58popped up shallow left field Turner is out he's under it he says he has it toward the line makes
08:04the catch and the inning is over no runs one hit two men left well think about this Yamamoto led
08:12the National League in fewest hits per nine innings so his average hits per nine was five point nine giving
08:19up four in an inning Bryson Stott slaps that one back up the middle of the base hit in the
08:25right center it goes
08:26and Bryson Stott and Bryson Stott with a two strike single to start the fifth and it's one of the
08:30quickest infields in all of baseball so those little shots up the middle get through a lot of the time
08:35swing and a ground ball back toward the middle of base hit into center field stops a second he'll stop
08:40there he puts the brakes on and Trey Turner picks up just his second hit of the series and Dave
08:46Roberts is coming up the stairs Yoshinobu Yamamoto
08:50after just sixty seven pitches in game three is done for the night and here comes Kyle Schwarber who the
08:57last time up hit a four hundred and fifty five foot moon shot to right yep and now it's Anthony
09:03Bonda to face him and Dave Roberts trying to put out this fire right here with one of his high
09:07leverage lefties
09:08a win two the runners creep off a little more and there they go the pitch breaking ball taken low
09:14the throw to third one Hopper not in time the Phillies pull off a double steal and they've got runners
09:20on second and third with nobody out here in the top of the fifth inning and Bonda strikes him out
09:26gave him the heat and out number one is a strikeout of Schwarber with runners at second and third that's
09:32a big one for Bonda mentioned Harper has a home run against Bonda Harper on the first pitch pops this
09:38one up
09:38now this is shallow right Fernandez got a long way to go he's gonna make the catch and stop won't
09:44challenge him too big out for Anthony Bonda just as the Phillies are in beginning mode now the momentum could
09:52switch here Bonda can retire Alec home well and it's set up for Dave Roberts now if he wants to
09:58put foam on first base they will intentionally walk in to face the left handed hitting Brandon Marsh the bases
10:04loaded intentionally by the Dodgers pitch clock violation here
10:08Marsha's upset you know I think he's upset because the bat boy was out there the 0-2 from Bonda
10:15he struck him out Dodgers Stadium roars Bonda roars right back as he pulls a rabbit out of his hat
10:24the Phillies leave them loaded and the tying runs are on for the Dodgers in this sixth now the Dodgers
10:32with two on Max Muncy coming up but one for one against Flores in this game
10:38Muncy on the ground double play ball here stop Turner to Harper and a double play and Ranger Suarez gets
10:45out of the jam the Phillies turned two and the Dodgers turned away here in the bottom of the sixth
10:51between innings Clayton Kershaw's entrance the great Sandy Koufax to his feet and his Clayton Kershaw makes his first relief
11:00appearance in a postseason game since the
11:032019 player and Turner back up the middle and a base hit so Trey Turner quiet some down here at
11:11Dodger Stadium lead off single in the seventh and Schwarber draws the walk to a patient approach first and second
11:18with nobody out against Kershaw this went from feel good to feel anxious quickly on the other side if you're
11:24the Phillies and you're Ralph Thompson be a you're dying for a few tack on run right here and Harper
11:29in the right field late break
11:32and it is a catch by Hernandez it wasn't pretty but Teoscar Hernandez secures it there was a little panic
11:42setting in you could see his eyes open up from here here's Alec Boehm both runners start now you gotta
11:51play it first and out at first is Schwarber Turner started then stopped and Schwarber couldn't
11:57get back and get back and the Phillies give Kershaw the Dodgers a gift in this seventh inning so once
12:04again Brandon Marsh has to go up against the lefty with runners in scoring position Kershaw peels that ball is
12:10hit hard right center Hernandez makes the catch and the inning is over and Clayton Kershaw has his postseason moment
12:19in game three so here's Shohei Oltani the Dodgers trail three to one this is the matchup could be the
12:26last hitter for Suarez
12:27Suarez Oltani fly ball to the left got some carry it is going to be caught at the wall Kepler
12:35with just enough room Oltani missed it off by a click on the bat and what a performance for Rangers
12:42Suarez tonight Blake Kershaw returns to the mound Dave Roberts is going to let it ride with his lefty wind
12:49up in the 1 0 pitch and it's swung on hit in the air left field deep going back to
12:54the new center fielder Dean he's looking up and it is gone
12:56and JT has hit one out to left center and the Phillies with a four to one lead here in
13:02the top of the eighth inning as real Muto hammers the pitch from Clayton Kershaw the first home run of
13:09the postseason for JT and it's his seventh overall lifetime let me tell you that is a massive tack on
13:16run that's the run the Phillies have been waiting for and the benefits of having a 2 0 lead in
13:22a series Dave Roberts is going to let it ride and now it's Castellanos
13:25bouncing ball third base and Muncie can't pick it everybody safe Muncie took a swipe Castellanos is aboard advancing in
13:35a scoring position both Kepler and Castellanos this is turning into a big opportunity for the Phillies right now swung
13:43on little bloop into right center field it's a base hit one run will score Castellanos coming around third he'll
13:48score as well it's a two run single for Turner and the Phillies lead six to one
13:54three runs run three runs are in here in the eighth now Kyle Schwarber got a three run fourth and
14:01now Schwarber a high towering fly ball that one is deep Hernandez will watch it fly it's another bomb Kyle
14:11Schwarber has done it again and the Phillies have busted it wide open here in the eighth Kyle Schwarber who
14:20started the scoring with a home run in the fourth with a roof
14:24a half scraper to right this time a wall scraper but it drives home two more and it's eight to
14:30one Phillies most home runs postseason history Schwarber has jumped Bernie Williams a lot of the fifty five thousand have
14:37decided to go fight traffic early his twenty third of his career with two tonight here's a swing and a
14:44lighter in the left center and it's up the alley it'll be cut off and kicked by Dean it rolls
14:48away to the wall and Harper's on his way into second base and the Phillies getting out
14:54out some frustrations tonight against the future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw Alec Boehm still one out on the ground
15:02through for a base hit and here comes Harper throw comes in from Hernandez on a hot guy play here
15:08great throw from Kike Hernandez saves a run for now Harper cut down at the plate on a perfect one
15:19hopper from Kike needed it the Dodgers here's Brandon Marsh now the payoff pitch tomorrow
15:24Kike has hit in the air right center field Dean on the run he's on the warning track at the
15:28wall he leaps and he makes the catch as he crashes into the fence in center field Justin Dean with
15:36an outstanding play off the bench Tywon Walker is about to make his first playoff appearance as a Philly remember
15:43last year he was left off the postseason rosters what has become a lopsided game with a five run eighth
15:51inning for the Phillies to break it open
15:53and Smith off the ball and Smith off the bat long way in for Mars he makes the catch go
15:58out number one Kike Hernandez works the one out walk Hernandez aboard for the third time here tonight two walks
16:06and a base hit Muncie on the ground through for a base hit Kike Hernandez on his way to third

16:25the ninth Dodgers down to their last out broken bat and that's going to sneak through for a base hit
16:32a little confusion between bomb and Trey Turner so it'll be an RBI for Tommy Edmund and that'll give Shohei
16:40Ohtani another at bat in this game here's Ohtani against Banks and the first pitch is popped up shallow right
16:46coming on is Castellanos
16:48as he's waiting and the ball game is over as Castellanos makes the grab Ohtani makes the final out and
16:54there will be one more game for the Phillies at least as they beat the Dodgers tonight in Los Angeles
