October 6, 2025 - 18:00
Harrison Bader will not be part of the lineup for Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the Dodgers after sustaining a groin injury during Game 1 on Saturday. The injury, which occurred while he was playing, has raised concerns about his availability for the remainder of the series.
Bader's absence is a significant blow to the Phillies, as he has been a key player in their postseason push. His speed and defensive skills in the outfield have made him an invaluable asset throughout the season. The team will need to adjust their strategy in his absence, as they face a tough Dodgers team that is known for its offensive prowess.
The Phillies are hopeful that Bader's injury is not severe and that he will be able to return to the field soon. In the meantime, teammates will need to step up to fill the void left by his absence as they aim to secure a crucial victory in the series.
