Game 4 was practically played on a see saw. With Philadelphia down by four runs after Bailey Falter was battered in the first inning, the hits kept coming — from the other dugout. Kyle Schwarber broke out of his slump with a single, and Rhys Hoskins' knocked him home with a home run (the first of two).
Later in the game, after Juan Soto's 2R HR gave the Padres the lead, the Phillies bounced back: Schwarber walked, and Hoskins homered (again). The Yankees wish they could respond like that right now.
For Game 5, Yu Darvish takes the mound for San Diego, and Zack Wheeler looks to close the Padres out.
Here's the lineups:
Padres: 1 Profar, Jurickson LF, 2 Soto, Juan RF, 3 Machado, Manny 3B, 4 Cronenworth. Jake 2B, 5 Bell, Josh DH, 6 Drury, Brandon 1B, 7 Kim, Ha-Seong SS, 8 Grisham, Trent CF, 9 Nola, Austin C
Phillies: 1 Schwarber, Kyle LF, 2 Hoskins, Rhys 1B, 3 Realmuto. J.T. C, 4 Harper, Bryce DH, 5 Castellanos, Nick RF, 6 Bohm, Alec 3B, 7 Stott, Bryson SSl, 8 Segura, Jean 2B, 9 Marsh, Brandon CF
