Phillies will face red-hot Mets in NLDS

The Philadelphia Phillies now know who their opponent will be in the NLDS.

Pete Alonso, Francisco Lindor and the New York Mets will face the Phillies in the best-of-five NLDS. The Mets defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2 in the win-or-go-home Game 3 of the NLWCS Thursday.

The Mets trailed 2-0 entering the top of the ninth inning, and seemed finished considering Milwaukee closer Devin Williams is one of the game’s most dominant relievers. But Williams struggled with control, before giving up a three-run home run to Alonso. Starling Marte added an additional run with an RBI single that scored Jesse Winker.
