Statis-Pro NLDS Series Both Go to Game 6

Both Commissioners trying to find time for Statis-Pro baseball games but the Montana Commissioner doing a better job with his than the Milwaukee Commissioner.  Here is the game-by-game for both NLDS series heading to a game six.

 

NLDS (Braves/Phillies)

Game 2

The Phillies bounced back as the incredible run of Zack Wheeler continues. He won his 13th straight decision with six strong innings. (6 IP, 1 ER)  A rare bad outing from Spencer Strider doomed the Braves. Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber each drove in two runs for the Philly offense.

 

Game 3

This featured the genius managerial move so far. J.T. Realmuto was mired in a 2-29 slump in the playoffs, so the Phillies went with backup catcher Garrett Stubbs. Down 2-0, Stubbs hit a 3-run HR (no homers during regular season) and the Phils held on to win 5-4.  (lead series 2-1)

 

Game 4

Back in the lineup, J.T. Realmuto paid it off with another 3-run HR from a catcher. Bryson Stott added 2-RBI’s, and Aaron Nola gave a solid 5-innings of work (2 ER) as the Phillies roll 8-3.  They now take a commanding 3-1 lead in the series. Austin Riley went 3-4 with a HR and 2 RBI’s in a losing effort.

 

Game 5

Season on the line for the Braves, and Matt Olson blasted 2 HR’s. But the Phillies Trea Turner hit his 3rd HR of the series and Philly rallied to tie it 4-4. The first extra inning game of these playoffs saw the Phillies squander two great scoring chances. Finally in the top of 12th, Jorge Soler ripped an RBI double to give the Braves the lead. Raisel Iglesias closed it out and saved the Braves 5-4. Series shifts back to Atlanta with Philly up 3-2.

 

NLDS (Dodgers/Diamondbacks)

Game 3

This back-and-forth series continued in Phoenix. The Diamondbacks ambushed Yoshinobu Yamamoto with 3-home runs in the first inning. (Corbin Carroll, Joc Pederson, Randall Grichuk). A great start from Zac Gallen (7 IP, 1 ER) made it stand up in a 4-1 win.  Arizona leads series 2-1

 

Game 4

The Dodgers needed a strong outing from Clayton Kershaw and got it. He went 7-innings only giving up one run. Freddie Freeman broke a 1-1 tie with a grand slam home run. He finished with 5 RBI’s on the day, as Dodgers win 9-1. Series tied 2-2.

 

Game 5

Ketel Marte continued his hot playoff run (.333, 3 HR, 6 RBI, 8 games)  He ripped a 2-run HR in game 5, as Tyler Glasnow gave another disappointing performance. (5 IP, 5 ER). Mookie Betts did snap out of his post-season slump going 4-4, 3 2B’s, HR, but it wasn’t enough. Arizona wins it 6-3. Series heads back to LA with the Diamondbacks leading 3-2.
