"I think this is kind of the lineup that we envisioned ourselves having all season long," Philadelphia catcher J.T. Realmuto said. "I just think that we’re clicking at the right time right now."

Schwarber has 18 home runs in the postseason. The mark ties Reggie Jackson for the most homers in the postseason by a left-handed batter, according to ESPN Stats & Info.

Aaron Nola helped the Phillies stay comfortable.

In six innings of work, Nola allowed just three hits in his entire outing. He had seven strikeouts and lowered his ERA to 0.96. Jeff Hoffman, Matt Strahm and Orion Kerkering came in to close the game out.

"It's not going to be every day, but the way that these guys are throwing the ball right now, it's been fantastic," Realmuto added, via NBC Sports Philadelphia. "It makes our jobs a lot easier, and hopefully as we keep going through this, we can make their jobs a little bit easier, too, with scoring some runs."

Arizona had four hits in total.

Ketel Marte was 2-for-4, Christian Walker was 1-for-4 and Gabriel Moreno was 1-for-4.
