The Philadelphia Phillies managed to avoid being swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers, who now have an opportunity to close out the series tonight.
In Game 3 yesterday, the Phillies turned the tide with two significant home runs from Kyle Schwarber, one of which soared an impressive 455 feet. They secured the win with a total of eight runs, breaking down the Dodgers’ defenses with three runs in the fourth inning and five in the eighth, finishing the game at 8-1.
Surprisingly, six of the Phillies’ 12 hits in that game came against Clayton Kershaw, who was making his first postseason relief appearance since 2019 and who plans to retire after this season.
If the Phillies triumph tonight, the series will head back to Philadelphia for a decisive Game 5 on Saturday.
