Dodgers Win Thrilling 11-Inning Game, Eliminate Phillies from Playoffs

UPDATE: The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in a nail-biting 11-inning game, eliminating them from the National League Division Series and advancing to the NL Championship Series.

Just moments ago, the Dodgers secured their spot in the championship series after a dramatic showdown at Dodger Stadium on October 10, 2025. The game was tightly contested, with both teams showcasing top-tier pitching from Christopher Sanchez and Tyler Glasnow, each delivering over six innings of solid work.

The Phillies struck first when Nick Castellanos hit a crucial double, bringing home Max Kepler in the seventh inning. However, the Dodgers responded quickly, with Mookie Betts earning a bases-loaded walk to tie the game in the bottom of the seventh.

The tension built as the game entered extra innings, with both teams unable to break the stalemate. It wasn’t until the bottom of the eleventh that the Dodgers capitalized on a critical error by reliever Orion Kerkering. With the bases loaded, Kerkering mishandled a weak drive from Andy Pages, allowing the winning run to score.
