Daily News | Dodgers sweep Phillies out of L.A. with a walkoff grand slam by Max Muncy
In his second game back from the fastest recorded return from Tommy John surgery — less than 24 hours after the first game — Harper notched three hits and reached base five times Wednesday in a matinee series finale at Dodger Stadium.Max Muncy blasted a walkoff grand slam against reliever Craig Kimbrel to send the Phillies to a 10-6 loss in a game that they led 5-0 in the third inning and 5-4 with two outs in the eighth.
Four outs from a victory, slick-fielding third baseman Edmundo Sosa was unable to come up with a knuckler off the bat of Austin Barnes against previously unhittable reliever José Alvarado. The ball was ruled a single. Two runs scored, and the Dodgers took a 6-5 lead. Kimbrel couldn’t push the game into extra innings. He gave up a leadoff single to Chris Taylor, who promptly stole second. After striking out Mookie Betts and intentionally walking Freddie Freeman, Kimbrel walked Will Smith to load the bases.Harper slides safely
