Daily News | Phillies sweep Cardinals behind Aaron Nola; Braves next in NLDS
ST. LOUIS — About three minutes before the first pitch of Game 1 of the National League wild-card series on Friday,“Every golden age has an end, and every great story has to start somewhere.”
The enduring image from that fateful game was Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard, collapsing 30 feet from home plate, as he tore his left achilles tendon while grounding into the final out. Fans threw white towels onto the field. It felt like the beginning of the end. When Nola walked Tommy Edman with one out in the third, he struck out Nootbaar, and induced a groundout from Pujols. When he allowed a single to Juan Yepez in the fifth, he induced a forceout and two groundouts to end the inning.
