The Philadelphia Phillies had to win Game 4 on Thursday night at Dodger Stadium. Instead, after playing 11 innings of win-or-go-home baseball, the Phillies handed the Los Angeles Dodgers a 2-1 win and the National League Division Series on a stunningly unbelievable mistake by reliever Orion Kerkering.
After a night of impressive pitching performances, beginning with starters Cristopher Sánchez and Tyler Glasnow, the tension built as the bullpens took over. Unfortunately, for the second straight year, thanks to a bullpen meltdown, the Phillies are going home without getting past the NLDS.
