The Phillies are on the brink of reaching the NLCS for the first time since 2010. They must win one of the next two games to eliminate the World Series champion Atlanta Braves in the best-of-five divisional round. Robertson received an injection Monday and has been throwing from flat ground. He’s a key member of the Phillies’ late-inning bullpen mix, with Seranthony Domínguez, Jose Alvarado, and Zach Eflin.
”I’m doing everything they tell me to,” Robertson said. “I want to be active.
