In a nail-biting Game 2, the Phillies fell short after a late comeback attempt. Despite a 2-run double from right fielder Nick Castellanos that brought the score to 4-3, the team could not clinch the victory. Their season now hinges on the performance of pitcher Aaron Nola, who has struggled this season with a 5-10 record and a 6.01 ERA.
Opposing him is Yoshinobu Yamamoto for the Dodgers, who dazzled in the clinching game against the Cincinnati Reds, pitching 6.2 innings with nine strikeouts and only two runs allowed. The stakes have never been higher for the Phillies, who must win to keep their playoff hopes alive.
For those looking to enjoy the game at home, additional streaming options include Sling TV and HBO Max, which can be bundled with Disney+ and Hulu. However, Sling TV does not currently offer a free trial.
