Los Angeles Dodgers veteran right-hander Jack Flaherty collapsed. It was a career-high game.

The Dodgers lost 6-12 to the New York Mets in Game 5 of the 2024 Major League Postseason National League Championship Series at Flushing City Field in New York on the 19th (Korea Standard Time).

Flaherty, who started, lost the game with eight hits (one homer) and four walks and eight runs in three innings. In Game 1 on the 14th, he led the team to a 9-0 victory by pitching two hits, two walks and six strikeouts in seven innings.메이저놀이터

He got a hit from the first inning. Flaherty, who gave up a hit to the right to leadoff hitter Francisco Lindor, was shaken when he gave up a walk to Brandon Nimmo.

He seemed to catch Mark Vientos with a fly ball to left field and take a breather, but he was hit by "New York polar bear" Pete Alonso with a three-run home run over the center fence.

In the second inning, he overcame the risk of losing a point with one out and runners on the third base. However, he failed to overcome the crisis in the third inning. Flaherty, who gave up walks to Alonso and Winker, the first batter, gave Marte a timely two-run double to the left field.

Flaherty, who caught Tyrone Taylor on a fly ball to left field and Jeff McNeil on a ground ball to shortstop, collapsed when he allowed Francisco Alvarez to hit a timely left-handed hit, Lindor to hit a timely triple on the right-handed line, and Nemo to hit a timely hit to right-center.

In the first round, Alonso, the polar bear of New York, was hitless. However, he lost in the fifth round. MLB.com said Flaherty became one of the worst games of his career.

MLB.com continued, "Flaherty pitched seven scoreless innings in Game 1 against the Mets, which was overwhelming. However, it was clear from the beginning that he was different from Game 1. He had a three-run homer in the first inning, and his situation did not improve in the third inning as well.

It is the first time that Flaherty has allowed eight runs in a single postseason game. This is the second time in the past three years that Flaherty has allowed eight runs or fewer in three innings.
