With an NLCS berth on the line, the Phillies are running back the same Game 3 batting lineup after they smacked six homers on Wednesday.

  • DH Kyle Schwarber
  • SS Trea Turner
  • 1B Bryce Harper
  • 3B Alec Bohm
  • 2B Bryson Stott
  • C J.T. Realmuto 
  • RF Nick Castellanos 
  • LF Brandon Marsh
  • CF Johan Rojas
  • LHP Ranger Suarez

For the second time this series, the Phillies will face Braves ace Spencer Strider. 

Strider had a great outing in Game 1, striking out eight Phillies batters, but Philadelphia was able to get to the righty and escape with a 3-0 win. 

Harper, who went yard twice Wednesday night, has hit two homers off Strider in his career. Both have happened in the NLDS, including one from the Game 1 win.

Schwarber and Bohm have also each went yard against Strider. Schwarber got very close in his first at-bat in Game 1, but the hit ended up being a double.

With a well-rested bullpen, the case could be the same Thursday, especially during this high stakes game. 

Below is the Braves' lineup for Game 4:
