October 12 - PHILADELPHIA -- A historic power display has the Philadelphia Phillies on the brink of a return to the National League Championship Series. Trea Turner and Brandon Marsh also homered and Aaron Nola (2-0) struck out nine over 5 2/3 innings as the Phillies captured Game 3 for a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five series. They beat the Braves in the NLDS in four games last year, going 2-0 against them in Philadelphia, en route to a World Series trip. Arcia had mocked him during the Braves' celebration after Game 2 ended, which got back to Harper in the Philadelphia clubhouse. An offensive juggernaut all year, the Braves have been held to seven runs and two home runs over three games.
