The San Diego Padres defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 8-5 in Game 2 to tie the NLCS series 1-1.
SAN DIEGO --
But just as they did Saturday night in eliminating the 111-win Los Angeles Dodgers, the Padres were spurred by the bottom of their lineup in a big comeback. The Padres, playing in their first NLCS since 1998, appeared to be in deep trouble after Snell threw 37 pitches in the Phillies' four-run second.
When Austin Nola grounded out in the second inning, it was the first pitcher-batter matchup between siblings in postseason history. Big brother came up again in the fifth with one out and Kim Ha-seong on first base. Aaron Nola threw to first several times before Austin singled to center to bring in the speedy Kim, whose helmet flew off between second and third before he scored with a headfirst slide.
