The brave are eliminated and the dream of double championship ends

Philadelphia — Brandon Marsh hit Homer in three ways and added a JT Realmoto home run to help the Philadelphia Phillies advance to the NL Championship Series for the first time since 2010, defeating the Philadelphia Phillies 8-3 on Saturday. Atlanta Braves, the last kings of the world championship.

Realmuto became the first catcher to hit a house inside the park in post-season history, while Bryce Harper left Game 4 of the series completely dissolved.

The Phillies won the Division Series 3-1 and will face the San Diego or Los Angeles Dodgers in the next stage.

The Atlanta elimination means there hasn’t been a repeat Major League baseball team since the New York Yankees won three consecutive titles from 1998-2000.

Philadelphia finished third in the Eastern Conference, 14 games behind the Braves, who had 101 wins this regular season. However, Phillies appear to be very different under coach Rob Thompson, who replaced Joe Girardi who fired him, and turned a poor team 22-29 in early June.

For the Braves, Venezuela’s Ronald Acuña Jr. 4-0, William Contreras 3-0, Oswaldo Arcia 3-2 with a run and RBI record. Puerto Rico Eddie Rosario 3-0.

For Velez, Dominican Jean Segura scored 4-3 with two rounds.
