Daily News | NL Division Series: Five subplots to Phillies vs. Braves
ST. LOUIS — For years, Rhys Hoskins walked by the same photo on his way into the Phillies’ spring-training clubhouse. It was a wide-angle, panoramic shot of Citizens Bank Park a few moments after the clinching out of the 2008 World Series. The place is packed. Everyone is standing. It’s mayhem.Hoskins is about to actually experience it.
“We were back and forth all year with those guys,” Hoskins said after the Phillies swept the St. Louis Cardinals out of the wild-card round. “I have no doubt that it’s going to be a back-and-forth series.”‘We are not losing this game’: How Bryce Harper’s mantra is setting a tone for the Phillies In four appearances against the Phillies, Strider allowed a total of three runs and piled up 34 strikeouts in 21⅓ innings. His fastball ranges from 97 to 99 mph and is, to use Alec Bohm’s words, “different.”
The Phillies have tried to limit the exposure to Robertson and Domínguez in recent weeks, as both dealt with control problems. But with the potential for five games in four days, there won’t be much choice but to use them often against the Braves, especially righty-hitting stars Austin Riley, Dansby Swanson, Ronald Acuña Jr., and William Contreras.
“There’s no heartbeat there,” Thomson said. “It just doesn’t flutter. It just stays right there. And I trust him almost in any situation.”When the Braves played four games in Citizens Bank Park last month, Acuña didn’t get off the bench until the eighth inning of the series finale because of back spasms. But the 24-year-old star right fielder wound up driving in the go-ahead run and scoring the winning run in the 11th inning of an 8-7 victory.
