Daily News | Zack Wheeler, power bats carry Phillies to 2-0 win over Padres in NLCS opener
SAN DIEGO — Yu Darvish didn’t look. Juan Soto didn’t move. Bryce Harper’s eyes widened and his jaw nearly hit the dugout floor.
But the stars led the way. Zack Wheeler gave up one hit and one walk in seven innings; Harper skied his third home run in as many games into the first row in left field in the fourth inning; Schwarber annihilated a first-pitch cutter from Darvish, sending it 488 feet into orbit in the second deck at Petco Park to open the sixth.
All have had their moments in this wild, magical postseason, never more than in the series opener against the Padres. Making his third postseason start, Wheeler continued to dominate by not allowing a hit until Wil Myers’ one-out single in the fifth inning. Harper told teammates to sit on fastballs from Darvish before taking a heater out the other way to hush a rally towel-waving crowd of 44,826.
