Bryce Harper had two hits, an RBI and reached base all four times to help the defending NL champion Phillies win the finale of the three-game series for their seventh victory in eight games.
Freddie Freeman and Jason Heyward went deep for the Dodgers, who have lost six of eight and dropped 3 1/2 games behind first-place Arizona in the NL West.
Taijuan Walker pitched five scoreless innings, allowing two hits with five strikeouts and two walks. The right-hander appeared visibly frustrated in the Phillies' dugout that he was not returning for the sixth inning after throwing just 83 pitches.
