This series on the west coast has felt like a dream. Part of the reason why is that all three games against the Dodgers have started at 10:10 PM on the east coast. You wouldn’t be alone in saying that you haven’t seen much of or any of this series.
How do we know it really happened? Did the Phillies really clinch the division with a back-and-forth win in extra innings on Monday? Did Shohei Ohtani really hold them hitless through five innings before they once again teed off on the L.A. bullpen in a comeback capped off by a Rafael Marchán three-run homer with two outs in the ninth? Who could be sure, but it definitely sounds like the sort of thing a group of people would make up to try and convince others that it actually happened.
