Career-defining performance from Nick Castellanos helps Phillies to steal Game 1

Final Score: Phillies 7, Braves 6

Games 2 and 3 of the NLDS felt like the Phillies’ best opportunities to make something happen against the Braves. Zack Wheeler gives the team a chance against anyone in Game 2, and Aaron Nola could be facing off against a restricted Spencer Strider — or someone other than Strider altogether — in a home Game 3.

The Phillies will enter that two-game stretch with an advantage.

After the Braves lefty had gone at least five innings in every start of the regular season, the Phillies knocked Max Fried out of Game 1 after just 3 u2153 innings on Tuesday, ultimately charging six runs to Atlanta’s ace’s line.
