Phillies attempt to become first team to repeat as NL champions since Dodgers in 2017-18
Philadelphia Phillies center fielder Brandon Marsh and center fielder Johan Rojas smile during the ninth inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 5 of the baseball NL Championship Series in Phoenix, on Oct. 21.No team this month has played better at home than the Philadelphia Phillies, who have a chance Monday to do their part to create a rare World Series rematch.
The Astros and Phillies are aiming to create the first World Series rematch since the New York Yankees defeated the Dodgers in 1977 and ‘78. “We have to play the game Monday and get back to Philly where we like to play,” Wheeler said. “I know they’re going to be very excited for it.” Arizona reached the NLCS for the first time since 2007 by thriving in intense situations, especially on the road. After sweeping the host Milwaukee Brewers in an NL wild-card series, the Diamondbacks swept a best-of-five NL Division Series from the Dodgers, whom they outscored 15-4 in the first two games in Los Angeles.
