The king is dead. The Phillies showed no mercy to the reigning World Series champion Braves and blew them out 3-8 (3-1 in the series) to advance to the NL Championship Series for the first time in 12 years.
Philadelphia was undeterred in the series against the champion Braves and made it clear that the postseason losing streak was behind them. Not only did they crush them in game 3, but they also took advantage of being at home to finish them off in four games.
Marsh started the party with a homer in the bottom of the second inning that drove Bohm and Segura off Morton, who couldn't stop Philadelphia's onslaught in the ninth.
The Atlanta team tried to respond with a solo home run by Arcia that made it 3-1 against Syndergaard. But it wasn't enough to break the opponent's confidence, as an inning later, Realmuto greeted pitcher Mchugh with a solo home run to put in the fourth run of the afternoon.
Olson would answer for the Braves with another fly-by in the fourth inning, but far from serving as motivation, Phillies pitchers didn't allow any more runs until late in the game.
In the sixth down, the Phillies put two men on base and Hoskins, with a single to the left field, could put up the fifth run, while Realmuto had another hit that drove in Schwarber, while Harper would finish the work with another single for Hoskins will write down.
Harper appeared in the eighth inning to hit his solo home run to finish the champions 3-8 and put the Phillies into the NL Championship Series.
Victory went to Hand, while Morton took the loss.
