The Atlanta Braves were arguably the team to beat in the postseason this year after winning the World Series last year, but the Philadelphia Phillies took down the defending champs.
Philadelphia PhilliesThe Phils are making their first trip to the National League Championship Series since 2010 after Saturday's 8-3 win over theThe defending champion Braves entered the NLDS as heavy favorites, but Saturday's loss knocked them out way earlier than many expected.
Brandon Marsh got the party going with a long three-run home run to open up the scoring in the second inning. That frame would be Braves pitcher Charlie Morton’s last after he was hit in the elbow with a comebacker a few batters before Marsh’s homer. J.T. Realmuto belted a long fly ball from Colin McHugh into deep center field over the head of Michael Harris II. Harris made every effort to make the catch, but it was just out of his reach and took a funky hop off the wall, skidding away from him. With no backup in sight, Harris was forced to field the ball away from him, which gave Realmuto time to round the bases for an inside-the-park homer and give the Phils a 4-1 lead.
