The Philadelphia Phillies won a thriller on Sunday night, edging out the New York Mets to tie the NLDS at 1-1.

That could be all the Phillies need to win this series against the Mets as they have been firing on all cylinders in recent weeks.

At some point their hot streak will come to an end, either because they won a World Series or because a team like Philadelphia took the life out of their locker room.

That’s much easier said than done, but this was a step in the right direction for the Phillies, and they need to keep it up going forward. If their offense continues to score runs, they should be in a good position.

Game 3 will bring challenges as they travel to Queens on Tuesday night.

Philadelphia faces Sean Manaea, who posted an impressive 3.60 ERA and struck out 184 hitters in 181 2/3 innings.

Finally he threw it the Phillies on September 21, allowing just three earned runs in 7.0 innings.

In June, the left-hander allowed six earned runs in 3 2/3 innings against Philadelphia, a good sign as they look to get him out of the game early and let New York use their bullpen.

It’s been an exciting first two games of the NLDS, and it’s only going to get better as the Mets and Phillies aim for three wins first.

With Aaron Nola playing for Philadelphia, this feels like as must-win a game as there will ever be in this series.
