Dodgers clinch home-field advantage throughout postseason as Phillies lose to Nationals 6-3

The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched home-field advantage throughout the postseason on Saturday when the Philadelphia Phillies lost 6-3 to the Washington Nationals, who got a three-run homer from Joey Gallo in a four-run eighth-inning. Los Angeles and Philadelphia open the Division Series on Oct. 5 against teams that emerge from next week's Wild Card Series. "We haven't played necessarily the best in the last week or so but once that postseason starts, all that's behind you and it's about competing in that moment, and I think we're ready for it," said the Phillies' Trea Turner, who tied the score 2-2 with a two-out homer in the eighth against Jose A. Ferrer (1-0).
