Nola Dominates Mets in 3-0 Win as Phillies Tie Cubs for Top NL Wild Card

Aaron Nola allowed three hits over seven innings as Philadelphia moved into a tie with the Cubs for the NL wild card lead.

  • On Thursday, Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Aaron Nola allowed three hits over seven innings, leading the Phillies to a 3-0 victory over the New York Mets and tying the Chicago Cubs for the top National League wild card spot.
  • Nola has dominated recently with a 2.10 ERA over his last 10 starts, proving critical as the Phillies overcame a dismal 9-19 start to remain in contention for their fifth consecutive postseason appearance.
  • Philadelphia broke a scoreless tie in the fifth inning when Trea Turner scored after a replay review overturned an out call, while sacrifice flies by Luis Arraez and Justin Crawford added insurance runs.
  • The game was interrupted in the sixth inning after Mets first baseman Jared Young collided with pitcher Nolan McLean; manager Andy Green noted Young had concussion symptoms but maintained feeling in his extremities.
  • With nine games remaining, the Phillies' magic number to clinch a playoff berth is down to five, while Philadelphia sits just four games behind East-leading Atlanta in the standings.
