[BostonRoss]

Harper could bat as the tying run!

[LoneStarPhan]

Hand joins Belletti, Eflin, and Robertson with scoreless innings after the fifth inning meltdown. The hit off Hand was the only one in the four innings. Good pitching but likely not going to lead to a win tonight.

[bkox]

The Phillies are the first team in MLB history to hit 5+ HR one game and then get no-hit the next (regular season or postseason).

— OptaSTATS ( @OptaSTATS ) November 3, 2022

[EastFallowfield]

Phils record after 15 postseason games in one season:

2009 9-6 (eliminated)
2022 11-4

[LoneStarPhan]

World Series no hitter for Javier and three relievers.

Series tied up 2-2.

[bkox]

There were 2 combined no-hitters in MLB this season:

- 1 by the Astros in a game started by Cristian Javier on June 25

- 1 against the Phillies in a game started by Aaron Nola on April 29

[HopeSpringsEternal]

What a difference a day makes.

This is going to test that "team resiliency" that people have said exists with this group of Phillies.

[EastFallowfield]

And where do we rank our franchise's one combined no hitter amongst all the no hitters in our franchise history?

[LoneStarPhan]

I will say that if the Phillies win 2 of the next 3 games to take this Series, it will be a most rewarding and memorable season.

The odds seem stacked in favor of the Astros, but who knows. Maybe, just maybe, this Phillies team comes through yet again.

[EastFallowfield]

For all the crap we hear about the CBP bandbox, 2 of the 3 postseason no hitters happened there. (Dusty Baker record in those games 1-1).

[zambonir]

Well, we need Verlander's second start to not go much better than Nola's second start. But regardless, so far the Phillies have only won in this series by scoring 6 runs or more and that seems like it might be necessary tomorrow.

I figured tonight was gonna be low-scoring but we would have lost 1-0 too.

[EastFallowfield]

A swinging bunt single or a bloop check swing double would have made this game feel any better?

We shut them out and scored 7 last night, they shut us out and scored 5.

[Philsmania]

The season has been sullied. Only a WC will make this worthwhile. The Phillies team we saw all season showed up tonight, not the flukish one of the last three weeks.

[Dirk41]

Fully looked like they had conceded after Alvarez gave up those runs.

Checkers vs Chess. We got this, y'all!!!
