Phillies on brink of elimination after Game 2 loss to Dodgers

But we got to get to the Phillies cuz they put us through a wide range of emotions last night and unfortunately are on the brink of elimination in the NLGS. >> The game went from close to seemingly out of reach. Then a glimmer of hope that was busted in the bottom of the ninth. The Phillies are off to LA for a win or go home matchup tomorrow night. >> Katherine Scott is live in South Philadelphia with fan reaction to last night's game. But we begin with Gabriella Galott who spoke with players about the loss. The Phillies have now lost five of their last six playoff games here at home. For as well as they play at the bank in the regular season and the postseason seems to be a bit of a different story. In game two, the top of the order, Trey Turner, Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper combined for just one hit. And now the team faces elimination on Wednesday night. So the bottom line, this team has to find their way back into the series. >> Yeah. Does it suck that we didn't get a win here? Absolutely. But now we have to go out there. We have to focus on one game at a time. There's no looking ahead, right? And, you know, make the, you know, make our flight back home here to Philly cuz we're going to be coming back at some some point. Make it worth something. >> Just got to be better and, you know, got our work cut out for us going into LA, uh, out west. So, um, like I said, the other day, got to flush this one and, you know, get the next one. >> Got nothing to lose now. Um, it's not over. Um, as much as you know, a lot of people like to say that it's not over and we're not going to quit until uh they tell us to go home. >> Game three is set for Wednesday night in Los Angeles. 9:08 p.m. Eastern time is the first pitch and for the second straight year, the Phils will try to avoid elimination in the NLDS. Reporting in South Philadelphia, Gabriel Galotti, Channel 6 Action News. >> So, if the Phillies don't do something in quick, the bank will have seen its last baseball game this year. Action News reporter Katherine Scott is live with what the fans are saying. Catherine, >> I know the fans are frustrated, Matt. Very dejected leaving the bank last night.

We were definitely in the mood for a little bit of Philly's magic and they just couldn't quite pull it off here tonight. >> The Phillies bats were cold for much of the game. The Dodgers Blake Snell allowing one hit in six shutout innings, striking out nine. It was 000 until the seventh when the Dodgers took a 4-0 lead.
