The Philadelphia Phillies, thanks to a 10-2 Game 3 shellacking of the Atlanta Braves, took a 2-1 series lead and can advance to their second consecutive National League Championship Series with a win in Game 4 on Thursday night. In a rematch of Game 1, the Phils will lean on the cool hand of LHP Ranger Suarez to start Game 4 while the Braves will counter with Spencer Strider, who would rather play sans fans. First pitch has been moved back to 8:07 PM/EDT from Citizens Bank Park.
