The Philadelphia Phillies suffered a soul-crushing defeat in Game 1 of the NLDS on Saturday night at Citizens Bank Park. Not only did they cough up a late lead after a gem by starter Cristopher Sánchez, but they lost outfielder Harrison Bader in the middle of the game due to injury.
Bader was replaced by pinch-hitter Nick Castellanos in the bottom of the seventh inning after he injured himself pulling up to second base two innings prior. Bader still remained on defense until he was eventually replaced as a hitter. The injury initially seemed like a hamstring strain, but it was later diagnosed as a groin injury.
