The Philadelphia Phillies looked like an unstoppable force heading into Game 3 of the NLCS.
But, they ran into an unfamiliar starting pitcher and had their worst performance of the postseason.
The Phillies were only able to scratch together one run on three hits in the Game 3 loss.
Yet, no one in that locker room is ready to panic after one bad game.
According to Ducis Rodgers, Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh said he and the team have already moved on to the next game.
Marsh said, “We already did,” after being asked how quickly you can flush it.

Nothing good can come from dwelling on a playoff loss.
Especially with the next game usually shortly after.
Before the Game 3 loss, the Phillies had only lost one other game in the playoffs.
That was to the Atlanta Braves in Game 2 of the NLDS.
After that loss, the Phillies proceeded to win the next two against the Braves and knock them out.
Game 4 is on Friday night with both teams looking at a bullpen game.
It is anyone’s guess what will happen when both teams’ bullpens take over a majority of the workload.
But Phillies fans should not be worried about how their team will respond.
This season and last they have been battle-tested plenty of times and always responded the right way.
Game 4 on Friday night looks like it could be one for the ages.
Arizona needs a win to tie the series up, while the Phillies are hoping to take a 3-1 advantage.
