Edmundo Sosa made a crucial defensive play in the sixth inning, successfully tagging out a runner at home plate during a bases-loaded situation. However, his efforts were overshadowed by the Mets' offensive surge, as they continued to build their lead. Sosa later reached base in the eighth inning, but the Phillies were unable to capitalize on the opportunity.

Edmundo Sosa is set to bat eighth in the lineup for the Phillies in Game Three of the National League Division Series. His performance will be crucial as the team looks to build on their recent offensive success against the Mets.

Edmundo Sosa will start at third base in Game 2 of the NLDS, bringing his energy and defensive prowess to the lineup. Although not known for his bat, Sosa has a .253 average with seven homers and 31 RBI this season. His selection comes as the Phillies look to rebound from a poor offensive performance in Game 1, and Thomson believes Sosa can help spark the team.
