00:00There's a little bit of a chill in the air that gives you an indication that October
00:09is right around the corner and the Phillies are looking to stamp the National League East
00:14tonight behind that guy Aaron Nola.
00:16It's Game 1 of the final three games here at home in the regular season against the
00:21Chicago Cubs.
00:22Facing Phillies righty Aaron Nola 12 and 8 on the year 3.54 earned run average.
00:27Pitched really well at his last outing.
00:29Unfortunately the Phillies didn't score a whole lot of runs.
00:32In fact he went seven innings allowed three hits in one run.
00:34It was a home run by Reese.
00:36Phillies offense struck out 16 times in that ball game.
00:39As Tuchman left handed batter stands in with a .249 average.
00:45Tuchman takes outside.
00:46It's a lead off walk.
00:47The man on for the Cubs Michael Bush coming up.
00:50There's a called third strike.
00:52Top of the zone.
00:53There's one away here in the first.
00:55Suzuki 21 homers.
00:57He's knocked in 71.
00:59Ball hit in the air.
01:00Right center field going back on his Castellanos.
01:02He's got a gauge on it.
01:03Makes the catch.
01:04Right on the warning track.
01:05They're two away.
01:06Back to first goes Tuchman.
01:08Bellinger 18 home runs.
01:0973 runs batted in.
01:10Runner goes.
01:11Pitches a strike.
01:12Second base on one hop.
01:13He is out at second base.
01:15What a pick by Trey Turner.
01:17And J.T. guns down another one.
01:19Two six.
01:20The caught stealing and the side is retired.
01:23No runs.
01:24No hits.
01:25Nobody left.
01:26We'll go to the bottom of the first.
01:27Nate Pearson acquired from the Jays on July 27th.
01:30This will be his first start since he was a J.
01:32And good work so far in a Cub uniform for the most part for Big Nate.
01:35And he faces Kyle Schwarber who leads off here in a scoreless game.
01:39Line drive.
01:40Base hit it to right field.
01:41Schwarber may get two out of this one.
01:43Bellinger plays it well off the wall.
01:45Here's the throw to second.
01:46One hop.
01:47He is out at second base.
01:49Great job by Cody Bellinger.
01:52He collected it and fired a strike.
01:54Vasquez put the tag down.
01:56And Schwarber out trying to stretch a single into a double.
02:01That will bring up the shortstop Trey Turner.
02:03Hit on the ground.
02:04Bush will take it in and step on the bag with his left foot.
02:08There comes Harper.
02:09Harper who had a rough weekend in New York.
02:11Two for 16 in the series with seven strikeouts.
02:15And that's way inside.
02:16That hit the plate umpire believe as it missed so badly Bethencourt,
02:20the catcher could barely even reach it.
02:22Boom.
02:23Hits it sharply to shortstop.
02:24Vasquez has it.
02:26That's the inning.
02:27Nice job by Pearson.
02:28No runs.
02:29One hit.
02:30One left.
02:31After one.
02:32Cubs nothing.
02:33Phillies nothing.
02:34One out single.
02:35First Cubs hit of the game.
02:36Scoreless game in the batter Nico Horner.
02:38A little tapper back to the mound.
02:40Nola up with it to second for one.
02:42Return to first.
02:43Not in time.
02:44One for the put out at second.
02:46That will bring up Pete Crow Armstrong.
02:48Flying drive into right field.
02:50Coming on Castellanos.
02:52Nice grab by Nick Castellanos.
02:55And there's the final out here in the top of the second.
02:57Castellanos aboard with the leadoff single.
03:00Bryson Stott bats.
03:01Up the middle.
03:02Vasquez sliding play.
03:04Goes to second.
03:05And they get the out.
03:06Oh, that's a sparkling play by Luis Vasquez.
03:10One out, one on.
03:12We're in the second inning.
03:13Nothing, nothing game.
03:14Here's J.T. Real Muto.
03:16J.T. hits one out to center field.
03:18That's pretty well hit.
03:19Pete Crow Armstrong's going back.
03:20And it's gone.
03:21Into the bushes.
03:24A two-run home run for J.T.
03:27And the Phillies strike first here in the second.
03:31It's a two-nothing ball game.
03:34He timed that perfectly.
03:36And that will wake up this crowd a little bit.
03:38I mean, they're just looking for something to cheer about.
03:41Two down, nobody on.
03:42That will bring up the left fielder, Mike Tauchman,
03:44who walked his first time up.
03:46Out to center.
03:47That's hit pretty well.
03:48Going back on it is Rojas.
03:49Out toward Monty's angle.
03:50It runs it down.
03:52And Johan Rojas runs it down for the final out.
03:55We're going to the bottom of the third.
03:57Two-nothing Phillies.
03:58Schwarber singled and was thrown out,
04:00trying to stretch that single into a double his first time up.
04:02So he's one for one.
04:04Fly ball right center field.
04:05Pretty well hit.
04:06Armstrong going back.
04:08It is gone.
04:11Kyle Schwarber, number 37 on the season.
04:15It gives him 100 runs batted in.
04:19Solo shot, and it's three-nothing Phillies.
04:22That's a double.
04:23Trey Turner to the corner.
04:26And he's going to pull at the second base.
04:29It's a double with nobody out.
04:31250 for his career as the Phillies look to build on a three-nothing lead.
04:38Who hits one in the air to deep left.
04:39Playable for Tauchman near the track.
04:41Now comes in, and the left-handed left fielder makes the catch,
04:45and that's out number one.
04:47And it'll bring Alec Boehm to the plate.
04:49Draws a walk here, and that'll bring up Nick Castellanos with two men aboard.
04:52Castellanos singled his first time up.
04:55Line drive, base hit into left field.
04:57Here comes Turner.
04:59Boehm holds up at second.
05:01RBI single for Castellanos.
05:03He's two for two.
05:04Eighty-five runs batted in this year for Nick.
05:07Four-nothing Phillies.
05:09Well, four-nothing Arenola has a four-run lead to work with.
05:12Lead off single for Michael Bush.
05:15And that'll bring up Seiya Suzuki.
05:17It's a fastball that's on the outside corner for a called strike.
05:21There's Cody Bellinger.
05:22Hit on the ground.
05:23Gobbled up by Harper.
05:25Throw to second.
05:26They get the out there.
05:27That's it.
05:28Swing and a ground ball to third.
05:29Boehm backhands it.
05:31Takes a look at the baseball.
05:32Tosses it across the diamond, and it's in time.
05:35And it's another scoreless frame for Arenola.
05:38Horner retired one away.
05:40Armstrong was robbed of a hit by former Cub Nick Castellanos,
05:44who made a nice sliding catch in right in the second inning.
05:47PCA is 0 for 1.
05:49That's golf down to right center field.
05:51Pretty well hit.
05:52Castellanos is back.
05:53So is Rojas.
05:54Rojas is there.
05:56The young man says, I got it.
05:58Two away.
05:59He says he got it, and he gets it.
06:01There's a towering fly ball out to left.
06:03It's short.
06:04And we got a marsh there.
06:05Yeah, marsh comes in.
06:06He's under.
06:07It makes the catch.
06:08Speaking of flow, one, two, three.
06:10Go the Cubs.
06:11Just five pitches for the Phillies right hander.
06:13It'll be Bryce Harper to lead off here in the bottom of the fifth inning.
06:16Bottom of the fifth inning.
06:17And Harper cues one down the left field line.
06:20Harper's hustling.
06:21He's going to get his way to second because Tochman misplayed it.
06:24It's a stand-up double.
06:26It's no big deal.
06:27It's his 15th double in his last 20 games.
06:30Pitch to Alec Boll.
06:32Swing and a ground ball towards the hole.
06:34Diving play.
06:35Vasquez gets up, throw to first, and a nice play by Esau.
06:40He steals a hit from Alec Boll.
06:43It's Castellanos already two for two.
06:45And ball four.
06:46He'll walk.
06:47Two on, one out.
06:48And now Bryson's stopped.
06:50They're going to throw behind Harper.
06:51The ball gets away from Vasquez.
06:53Tight turn for Harper.
06:55He's coming home, and he'll score standing.
06:58They're throwing it around here at Citizens Bank Park.
07:01Five-nothing Philz.
07:03Bethencourt's throw to second had gone off the glove of the shortstop Vasquez.
07:07They should have caught that, too.
07:09And the Cubs with a scoring chance now
07:11as they try to get back in this game here in the top of the sixth inning.
07:14Two down minutes, second and third, and the batter is Bellinger.
07:18Strike three called.
07:19Got him looking on the inside corner.
07:21Bellinger doesn't like the call.
07:22But Nola, it's a half dozen on the night for the Philz right-hander.
07:25On the corners, nobody out.
07:27Kyle Schwarber tonight, two for three.
07:30Bounce to the second base.
07:32Could be two.
07:33They get one at second, and they get the second one at first.
07:37A run does score.
07:38No RBI for Schwarber, but it's now six-nothing Philz.
07:43Nico Horner the batter with a man at second and nobody out.
07:46Base hit left field.
07:48Paredes and his SpongeBob Spikes on the way home.
07:52Nico knocks him in with a double.
07:55The Cubs are on the board.
07:56It is 6-1.
07:58Outside, he walked him.
08:00Plot starting to thicken here in the city of brotherly love.
08:03Three straight batters have reached.
08:05A run in the bank.
08:07Men at first and second.
08:08Still nobody out.
08:10And the batter is Christian Bethencourt.
08:12That one bunted to third.
08:13It's a good bunt.
08:14Bone charges can't make the play.
08:16Everybody's safe, and they're loaded.
08:19It'll be a base hit for Christian Bethencourt.
08:22Philz needed Aaron Nola to step it up tonight, and he did step it up.
08:2642,386 coming to their feet as Aaron will exit and Matt Straub will come in.
08:33Swing and a foul tip.
08:34He got him.
08:35One down.
08:36Here is Mike Tauchman.
08:37Base is loaded.
08:39Tauchman hits it on the ground to first.
08:40Harper has it.
08:42Steps on the bag.
08:43Runs, scores.
08:45Cubs get a run.
08:46It's 6-2.
08:47First pitch is a broken bat.
08:49One hopper back to Carlos Estevez.
08:52And Pete Crow Armstrong is out number one.
08:55Bethencourt.
08:56The 0-2.
08:57Hit in the air.
08:58Left center field.
08:59That's well hit.
09:00Marsh is on the run.
09:01Out toward the 374 sign.
09:02Oh, he dropped it.
09:03He had it and dropped it.
09:04And Bethencourt will be safe at second base.
09:07Mastrovoni.
09:08Swing and a miss.
09:09He got him.
09:10Two outs here in the ninth inning.
09:12Everybody ready to capture the moment.
09:14Three and two.
09:15Two outs.
09:16Runner at second.
09:176-2 Philz.
09:18Check swing.
09:19Low.
09:20Ball four.
09:21And the inning continues.
09:24Remember that bright sunshiny afternoon when the Phillies won
09:26the National League East in 2007.
09:29And now we've got a cool night here in September in 2024.
09:33Swing and a fly ball.
09:34Right center field.
09:35Castellanos going back on the edge of the track.
09:37Makes the catch.
09:39The ball game is over.
09:41For the first time in 13 years, the Phillies will celebrate as
09:47National League East champions.
09:50It's their 12th divisional crown.
09:53And they'll mob each other on the mound one more time.
