Tommy Pham, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit homers as Arizona Diamondbacks beat Philadelphia Phillies 5-1 to force Game 7 in NLCS

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Gregory Soto throws Arizona Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll out at first during the ninth inning in Game 6 of the NL Championship Series in Philadelphia. The Diamondbacks won 5-1 on Oct. 23, 2023.Tommy Pham and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit back-to-back homers and Merrill Kelly struck out eight to help the Arizona Diamondbacks force Game 7 of the National League Championship Series with a 5-1 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday night.

“Getting there is really important, so we have that all-in mentality,” Lovullo said before Game 6. “We didn’t come cross-country to get our asses kicked. We came here to play our best baseball game, and our guys will be ready to go.”Kelly retired Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner and Bryce Harper in order in the fifth with the Diamondbacks ahead 4-1. When Kelly retired to the dugout, Lovullo told the right-hander he was done.

Nola was lights out in every post-season start, pitching against the backdrop that the pending free agent could be down to his final games with the Phillies. He was 3-0 with a 0.96 ERA in October. A sign this wouldn’t be Nola’s night? Pham was benched for Game 5 because of a 1-for-13 effort in the NLCS. Back in the lineup, he quieted a crowd of 45,000 towel-waving fans.
