That success came to a screeching halt in Philadelphia. Kyle Schwarber has three homers in the series, including a pair in Game 2, while Bryce Harper, Nick Castellanos and Trea Turner have also gone deep.The good news for the D-backs is Pfaadt is coming off one of his best outings this year.
Lovullo has said that even if Pfaadt is pitching well in Game 3, he’ll likely face 18-to-22 batters. The D-backs used that strategy with Pfaadt against the Dodgers, yanking him at the first hint of trouble, and it led to the series-clinching 4-2 victory.Arizona had just four hits in each of the first two games for a .129 batting average. The defense has not been crisp; three fielders let a short popup fall for a base hit in the seventh inning of Game 2.
“We’ve been playing meaningful baseball games for about the past 45 days,” Lovullo said. “So we’re battle tested from an emotional standpoint. We know that one quick turn, one quick moment, can turn the tide.”
