Summary
New York enters the Philadelphia finale seeking a three-game sweep after allowing just one Phillies run across the first 18 innings of the series.
Cristopher Sánchez gives the Phillies their toughest counter yet: the left-hander is 12-4 with a 2.65 ERA, 151 strikeouts and top-tier walk and whiff rates through 21 starts.
Will Warren gets the ball for the Yankees after rotation shuffling tied to doubleheaders and Max Fried’s return; he is 7-4 with a 4.00 ERA but has yielded 20 runs in his last 26.1 innings.
Injuries further test New York’s lineup, with Cody Bellinger joining Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton on the IL, while call-up Spencer Jones starts on the bench against a third straight lefty.
