The Phillies can put the reigning World Series champions on the brink of elimination Wednesday night.
After sweeping the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium in the National League wild-card round, Philadelphia secured a third consecutive road playoff win Tuesday afternoon in Atlanta. Bryce Harper and company fended off a late Braves rally to take an early lead in the teams’ best-of-five series.
Zack Wheeler, who pitched 6 1/3 shutout innings against the Cardinals last Friday, will toe the rubber for the Phillies in Game 2 at Truist Park. The second-seeded Braves will counter with fellow right-hander Kyle Wright, whose 21 regular-season wins led all of baseball.
