The Philadelphia Phillies (66-46) will square off with the Los Angeles Dodgers (66-47) on Tuesday in an attempt to even up the three-game series after dropping Monday's opener. The 5-3 loss was the Phillies' seventh in the last eight games, and they're now in danger of losing the top record in the National League — to the Dodgers.

After the Phillies jumped on Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow in the second inning for a pair of runs, it looked like they might be able to put up enough offense to back Aaron Nola. Unfortunately, Nola lost it in the third and got hit hard for four runs. That's all Glasnow needed, and he cruised to his ninth win of the season, striking out nine Phillies in six innings.

The loss, just one day after what looked like a slump-busting win in Seattle, is the Phillies' 12th in 16 games since the All-Star break.
