MLB playoffs 2023: Diamondbacks eliminate Dodgers, Phillies take 2-1 lead over Braves in NLDS Game 3s

It was a longball party Wednesday in Philadelphia, as the Phillies clobbered six home runs — tying the record for most in a game in MLB postseason history — en route to a 10-2 Game 3 demolishing of the Braves and a 2-1 lead in this NLDS. They'll have a chance to clinch their ticket for an NLCS return at home in Thursday's Game 4.

It was arguably even more of a longball party later on in Arizona. The Diamondbacks slugged four homers in one inning — setting an MLB postseason record — en route to a 4-2 victory and a 3-0 series sweep, sending them on to the NLCS and the Dodgers home for a long winter.
