The Phillies haven’t won a playoff series in 1,086 days. Is this exit the end of an era?

The Philadelphia Phillies were eliminated from the postseason following a 6-2 loss to the Atlanta Braves in Game 3 of the Wild Card Series. The defeat marks 1,086 days since Philadelphia last won a playoff series, having lost 12 of their past 16 postseason games.

President of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski faces major offseason decisions, including whether to permanently replace interim manager Don Mattingly, with Alex Cora reportedly viewed as a potential target. Starting pitcher Aaron Nola lasted just 1 2/3 innings in the deciding loss, while key contributor Alec Bohm heads toward free agency.
