MLB Playoffs: Braves comeback, Diamonds take 2-0 lead

The ALDS games shift locations heading into game three

With the AL teams off on Monday, it was the NL chance to shine. Atlanta overcame a 4-0 deficit by scoring five runs from the sixth inning on.

Zack Wheeler was fantastic through the first five innings for the Phillies, and overall struck out 10 in 6.1 innings. Starting for the Braves, Max Fried struggled to get things going, allowing six hits and three walks in four innings pitched.

The bullpen allowed one unearned run the rest of the way out.

For the second straight game, the Diamondbacks jumped out on the Dodgers starting pitcher in the first inning, scoring three on rookie Bobby Miller, and rode that to a 4-2 victory and 2-0 series lead.

Zac Gallen allowed two earned runs across 5.1 innings to get the win.
