Alek Thomas's solo home run in the seventh was the Diamondbacks' lone run of Saturday. Ketel Marte also collected a single, adding to the eight hits gained, making him the only Diamondback to have hit safely in all ten playoff games this season. As a team, the Diamondbacks have a power ranking of 14, offense of 4.60 points per game on average, defense of 4.64 points per game and total of 91-81 season.

Philadelphia Phillies Analysis

The Philadelphia Phillies had a superb outing in Game 5 of their NLCS series against the Arizona Diamondbacks, with their ten three-home run barrage in the series giving them a total of 23 home runs this postseason - 11 shy of the Tampa Bay's 2020 postseason record 34. Leading the team in the series, Kyle Schwarber has an NLCS-best 11 home runs and 20 postseason home runs in his career, while Bryce Harper accounted for 2-for-4 in the series and had five home runs of the playoffs, with an impressive .343 batting average and .511 OBP. Their pitching was also impressive, accounting for 100 strikeouts as a club this postseason and allowing 19 earned runs in 96.1 innings. Philadelphia's power ranking stands at #8 for offense (scoring an average of 4.93 per game), #9 for defense (giving up an average of 4.28 points per game) and a 98-75 overall record. Arizona went 1-2 in their last 3 matchups against Philadelphia.

Nola Shines in Postseason, puts Phillies in Reaching Distance of Series Lead

Nola has been in top form in the postseason with three starts, two total runs, 11 hits and two walks allowed. Since getting a big lead in Game 2, Nola was pulled after 89 pitches, leaving plenty in the tank. Arizona’s offense has struggled to keep pace with Philadelphia’s 5.4 runs per game in this series, which has widened to a 5.7 run margin of victory in the Phillies’ three wins. Another successful outing from Nola could take his team back into the limelight. It’s no wonder many are taking the Phillies with the run line.
