⚾ Down early, the Phillies' bats and a crowd of 45,467 never quit. The Phils hit four home runs, beat San Diego, 10-6, and are a win away from the World Series!
They moved to the threshold of baseball's biggest event with a wild 10-6 victory over the San Diego Padres in Game 4 of the NLCS in front of a huge and throaty crowd of 45,467 at Citizens Bank Park on Saturday night.
Without a dependable fourth starter, they were forced to get creative with their pitching. The plan was for lefty Bailey Falter to pick up the first three innings and hand off to a cast of relievers. The plan worked beautifully in the NLDS clincher against Atlanta last weekend. It did not work as smoothly this time. Falter, who had pitched just one inning in the last three weeks, failed to get out of the first inning as the Padres jumped out to a 4-0 lead.
The Phils, on hits by Nick Castellanos and Bryson Stott, came all the way back to tie the game in the fourth. San Diego scored twice against Brad Hand in the fifth to take a 6-4 lead in the top of the fifth.
