LOS ANGELES — Nick Castellanos and J.T. Realmuto sat next to each other in the visitors’ clubhouse at Dodger Stadium and spoke one-on-one. The two talked for a while. In what could have been some of their final moments together as Phillies teammates, there was time to reflect.
The loss — or at least the way it unfolded — was unconscionable. With the bases loaded in a tie game in the bottom of the 11th inning, reliever Orion Kerkering bobbled a tapper back to the mound and threw it over the catcher Realmuto’s head at the plate.
