MLB Playoffs: Phils Erase Four-Run Deficit To Take 2-0 Series Lead
At Philadelphia:
The Philadelphia Phillies came back from a four-run deficit after 4 1/2 innings and defeated the Cincinnati Reds, whose relief pitching and defense failed them, 7-4 in game two of their National League divisional playoff series. The Phils can finish off the Reds with a win on Sunday night in Cincinnati. With Cincy leading 4-3 heading into the bottom of the seventh inning, Reds' rookie relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman hit Chase Utley with a 101-mile-per-hour fastball. With runners at first and second with one out, Jimmy Rollins hit a line drive that right fielder Jay Bruce turned into a two-base error. Chase Utley scored the tying run from second base. Next, the right fielder threw to second baseman Brandon Phillips, who dropped the ball for another error, allowing Jayson Werth to score what proved to be the winning run for the Phillies.
