Dodgers vs. Phillies Game Highlights (4/5/25) | MLB Highlights

Aaron coming off what was a good start to begin Sunday, but then gave him a three-run home run to Josh Bell. Overall, he gave him five earned runs. Shohei Ohtani getting ready to stand in. Dodgers in the traveling road. Grays, the Phillies wearing their cream-colored home uniforms. Nola kicks and deals, and the pitch swing and a miss. He struck him out. Ohtani down swinging to begin the ballgame. Home with another 2-2 to Betts. Punches a ground ball through the right side, and he steers the base hit into right field. Good job by Mookie, just shorting it up and just shooting it over to that right side. The pitch. Swing and a tapper out in front of the plate. J.T.'s got it. Fires down to second on one-hop stop fields. The throw to first, not in time. Whole lot going on there, but unable to complete the double play, but they do get the lead runner, Betts, for the second out. Flips that one out to center. It's not deep. Marsh comes running in. He says he has it, and he does. Innings over. You know, Rokey's been open to coaching and suggestions. Things are a lot different for him here than they were in Japan. They've said that, yeah, he has been open and listening and trying to act on things and make some adjustments, so we'll see how it works out this afternoon. The 3-2 on the way, and it's hit on the ground. Right side, that's going to get through. Pulls it through the hole. A base hit out of the reach of the diving second baseman, Edmund, and Schwarber with a lead-off single. And now Trey Turner, the hitter. Turner shoots it the other way. That'll be in for a base hit. Hernandez takes it out of bounds. Schwarber's on his way to third. The throw is cut off by Betts. He's in safely. Forgot how fast he is this year. He is cat-like. First and third with nobody out. Shoulder-high set, he delivers, and the pitch is taken for a strike. Turner, a late break, but he easily steals the bag. And Trey Turner with another stolen base. He gets Harper swinging, So he strikes out Bryce Harper for the first out. Interesting, he went four splitters to Harper. Didn't even mess around with the fastball. Bouncer over the mound. That'll get a run home. Nobody's covering first. Finally, Hernandez gets back there. It's 1-0 Bills. Third RBI of the year for Alec Bohm. Now Max Muncy on a 2-2 from Nola. Yanks one down the line. It's a fair ball and extra bases for Muncy. He was due. And he's got himself a double. Quique Hernandez with the tying run and scoring position here, two out. He'll swing and he'll drive one down the left field side. This ball is deep. This ball is gone. It's a home run. Quique Hernandez has given the Dodgers a 2-1 lead with a home run just inside the left field foul pole. A home run for Quique. He went hunting first pitch, and he bagged a fastball. Dodgers, two, Phillies, one. Nine, one, and two for the Phillies coming up against Sasaki. Marsh swings and misses at the splitter and strikes out, so both strikeouts for Sasaki have come on the splitter. Swing and a miss at a splitter. Third strikeout, third strikeout on the splitter. He had Schwarzer completely fooled. Clyde to left field. Routine for Conforto. And that is nine straight retired by Sasaki. It's a good club they have here, no doubt. 2-2 pitch, banged in the right. That's a base hit, and Muncy is two for two. First multi-hit game of the year for Max Muncy. Law of averages, right? He does not have a single. Three hits in 23 at-bats. Nola's 1-0. Ground ball, hit towards third, backing up. Boehm stabs at it. He's got it. Long throw, and it's right on target. There's a fine play by Alec Boehm. That's where Roque, at least, or where the big differential. He gets ahead of counts. I mean, good night hitter because of the movement. 3-2 on the way. And he goes to the off-speed, and he missed with it. Harper saw it out of hand, I think. That's a lead-off walk. And now Alec Boehm to the plate. Starts him with a fastball, and it's sent to right field. Hernandez coming on. He's got it. And there's the first out. And another first pitch swinging in the air to center field. Spreading him around. Two out. Got him to chase. He strikes out Castellanos, his fourth of the game. Nola Wines, his pitch. Swung on, and a ground ball to second. Backhanded by Bryson Scott. He straightens up, throws to first. Forget O-Ton, and there are two down. Here's the 2-1 pitch, and it's bounced to third. A step back for Boehm. He's got it. Long throw. It's in time again. And there is the first 1-2-3 inning of the day for Aaron Nola. Billy's down 2-1. Bottom of the fifth inning. Bottom third of the order. It's taken for a leadoff walk. Swung on. Hit in the air. Right field. Falling. Coming on. Hernandez. He pulls up. Plays it on a bounce. I don't think he got a great read on that. Looked like a pretty big swing, but it wasn't hit all that hard. And the Phillies will take it. Start with the first hit for the Phills since Turner's single back in the first. Well, that's going to do it. Dave Roberts is coming to get Sasaki. Sasaki is going to leave with a lead, but he is responsible for the tying and go-ahead runs on base. So Sasaki leaves the ballgame after four innings plus two batters. Bonda now with a chance. And the Dodgers get some more activity in the bullpen. A right-hander throwing. Here's the pitch from Bonda. Runner goes. Pitch is swung on. Line to right. Right there is Teoscar. He makes the catch. Throws back to first. Stretch. They got him. To end the inning. And a bad base running by the Phillies cost them from getting the tying run to home plate. The run did not score before the out was recorded at first base. Huge double play. Had to bring out Michael Conforto, the left fielder, who's 0-2 today. Conforto hits a towering fly ball to right field. Castellanos going back on the track at the wall. Goodbye. Michael Conforto with a sky-scraping home run. A 3-1 lead for the Dodgers. Well, he jumped all over the putter that was left right down the middle by Nola. And Conforto hammered it. And all the right fielder Castellanos could do was fade back and watch. In fact, the Kepler was new. And sort of under the radar pick. But he said he's got to get going with the bat. And he's not going here as he swings and misses. Well, he's going, but he's going back to the dugout. That's right. That's where he's headed. 1-0 pitch is lifted in the air to right field. Playable for Teoscar. He's under it. Makes the catch. He's two down. Highline drives center field. Páez makes the catch. Ben Casperius retires all six that he faces. Stott, Marsh, and then Schwarber. For Vessi of this season, this will be appearance number six. 1-2 to Stott. Strikes him out. Man, that thing had a ton of movement to it. Almost like a boomerang for the first out of the eight. Swung on him. Missed strike three. A low fastball. And Vessi has come out of the Dodger pen and punched out the first two men. And a 1-2 pitch. Ooh, way inside. It hit him. And Vessi of plunks Schwarber, and that'll put a man on and bring up Trey Turner representing the tying run here in the bottom of the eighth inning. Got him! 3-Ks in the inning for Alex Vessi. After eight in Philly, Dodgers up 3-1. Tanner Scott comes on looking for his third save of the season. This will be his sixth appearance. Cue shot toward third. Made up Munson. That thing had so much spin on it, and he kind of looked like he didn't know whether to backhand it, scoop it, get in front of it. And Harper's going to reach, and the Phillies have some life. And so it's ruled a hit. Ball to short. Could be two. Betts the second one. Edmund, the first double play. 6-4-3, just like that. They're wiped clean, and the Phillies are down to their last down. This game has been a roller coaster, hasn't it? Kepler serves on a left center field. Conforto on the run. There's the ball game! Three-pitch ninth inning for Tanner Scott. He hardly blinks, and he's got the save. And the Dodgers will win this ball game by a 3-1 score. Tanner Scott picks up the save. The Dodgers now go to 9-1.
