The National League Championship Series is expected to be a pitcher dominated series. Both team can go at least three deep in their rotation, so the offenses for both sides were put on notice: better be ready.
Tonight, Yu Darvish and Zack Wheeler were great, but Wheeler was a bit better, which turned out to be the difference.
The Phillies did have a chance to start the game off well by stealing a run off Darvish in the first inning. Kyle Schwarber started the game with a walk, then went to second on a wild pitch as Rhys Hoskins was at the plate.
