Following a dramatic extra-inning win on Wednesday that leveled their postseason series at one game apiece, the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves are set for a decisive third game. Alec Bohm delivered the decisive blow in the tenth frame after clutch home runs from Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper, while rookie relief pitcher Andrew Painter tossed three scoreless frames to help secure the victory.
Thursday night brings a winner-take-all showdown at Truist Park where the victor will advance to face the Los Angeles Dodgers in the next round of the postseason. To decide the series, Philadelphia will send veteran right-handed pitcher Aaron Nola to the mound, with ZackH Wheeler potentially available out of the bullpen.
Meanwhile, Atlanta plans to open with left-handed reliever Ray Kerr before potentially turning to right-handed starter Grant Holmes.
