Final: Phillies 10, Padres 6
If Game 1 of the NLWCS wasn’t enough, the Philadelphia Phillies delivered a signature postseason comeback in Game 4 of the NLCS, erasing multiple deficits to put themselves within a win of the World Series.
While Bailey Falter retired the first two batters he faced, he wasn’t able to record another out.
Manny Machado interrupted “Manny sucks!” chants by hitting a solo home run. Brandon Drury knocked Falter out of the game with a two-run double into right-center field. Before the inning was out, Ha-seong Kim singled in another run off of Connor Brogdon, the fourth and final run charged to the line of Falter:
Somehow, Padres starter Mike Clevinger fared even worse in the home half of the first inning.
