The Dodgers and Phillies is a battle for a bye in the National League, but it is also something of a play -off preview and Boy has delivered the two teams today. The Phillies got the early lead, but the Dodgers immediately returned to take their own lead in the later innings, where both teams went back and forth. Eventually it came to extras, where the Phillies were able to produce a run and the Dodgers could not, which resulted in a loss of 6-5.
One of those losses that are bad, but in the end you are sometimes just defeated.
=======
Starting for the Dodgers was Anthony Banda Serving as a opener, who had a double goal to get a Lefty against the Phillies Two Star Lefty Sluggers and also get it Emmet Sheehan Is used on a potential play -off pen -roll.
Well, the more open part of the comparison did not go so well. The opposite as intended, in fact. Banda received a strikeout against Righty Harrison Baderthen gave one Kyle Schwarber Homer to set up the Phillies 1-0 and a walk to Bryce Harper.

That was the end of his night, when Emmet Sheehan replaced him, and that part of the comparison worked considerably better. He started his outing by getting a strikeout and groundout to end the 1st.

On the other hand, another starter of the play-off quality was in Ranger SuarezAnd he only began to allow one by the first two innings. The 3rd started better when Andy -Pages Then walked away with a double, then Chuckie Robinson SAC stunted him to third place. Shohei Ohtani Then Mookie ran the game with a pocket fly. 1-1.

Pages followed with another double, then Robinson tried to bump again, but Suarez threw pages in third place. That went well, because Shohei was given liters to hit and double to place a few in a score position. Mookie then hit another SAC fly to extend the lead to 3-1.

They got another Risp in the 6th with a one-out single and walk but could not add. That would be a problem in short order.

Back to Sheehan, who usually drove in the future after the 1st. He gave up a two-out walk in the 2nd, a starting walk in the 3rd, and a lead-off walk in the 6th, but literally nothing else about those five innings.
Sheehan started the 7th, but gave up a double of the basic rule to start and that was the end of the road for him on 94 fields: 5.2 IP, 1 hour, 1 r, 3 BB, 7 K, 94 throws.
Jack Dreyer Felled with two left -wing, but did not do his job. After he received a groundout to start, he gave up a single Bryson Stott To drive in a run, and then indicated a two-run Homer Weston Wilson. The Phillies took a 4-3 lead in the 7th just like that.

It doesn’t matter, while the Phillies immediately hit back. Alex shutters Said for the 8th and immediately gave up a homer to Bryce Harper to give the Phillies a 5-4 lead.

Brutal order, but hard to complain about anything but the performance of the relievers. Dave Roberts Used his best guys in good situations and they simply did not perform today.
Tanner Scott Followed in the 9th by getting another 1-2-3 inning, so that is a plus.

Back to the Dodgers, now chased again, they were quiet in the 8th, and looked like they had a tough battle in the 9th against Jhoan Duran. Fortunately, Andy Pages exists and he got his third extra base of the night on a 0-2 curve-the first hit on the field since July 27 and the union the match on 5-5 because he was his 25th Homer of the Year.

Later, with two down, Shohei pulled a walk and stole second against Duran, but Mookie flew out to end that threat.
Bonus baseball!
Blake trains Took over in the 10th, got the first in Schwarber on an Infield Pop and then intentionally walked Harper. However, a double stem released a few in scoring position and a bag of fly JT RealMuto Plated the go-ahead run to bring the score to 6-5.

Now confronted David Robertson” Leg rortvedt Started by trying to bump and failure twice, it was saved by being dropped by a pop error by RealMuto. He eventually moved the runner to third place in a helicopter in the middle, they intentionally walked Freddie Freeman To set up things, and Alex Call Walked on a 3-2 count to charge the bases. Unfortunately, Miguel Rojas Couldn’t get through when he popped up, so Max Muncy came up like their last sigh, but got up to end the game first.
Hard end, but I don’t know, one of those who happens when playing a good team instead of one that makes me furious about sloppy game.
