道奇成功擊敗看好奪冠的費城人隊,靠著對方投手的低級失誤晉級
2025年MLB國聯分區系列賽上演一場足以載入季後賽史冊的經典戰役。今日(美國時間10月9日),洛杉磯道奇隊在主場迎戰費城人隊,雙方鏖戰至延長十一局,最終因費城後援投手奧里昂・科爾克林(Orion Kerkering)在兩出局、滿壘的高壓情況下出現致命傳球失誤,導致再見暴投(walk-off error),讓道奇以戲劇性的方式晉級國聯冠軍賽(NLCS)。這一幕被形容為「一失足成千古恨」,也讓這場比賽瞬間成為球迷口中的經典之戰。
比賽一開始,道奇與費城人展現出旗鼓相當的實力,兩隊先發投手均表現出色,前幾局互不相讓。中段過後雙方打線陸續有所突破,但守備與牛棚火力同樣緊繃,最終在正規九局戰成平手,進入延長賽。兩隊一路鏖戰至第十一局,場上氣氛達到沸點——那時兩出局、滿壘,費城只要再抓下一個出局數,就能撐進第十二局。
然而,命運就在此刻翻轉。費城後援投手科爾克林投出一顆失控的變化球,球直接飛越捕手手套,滾向本壘後方。三壘跑者毫不猶豫地衝回本壘得分,道奇全場沸騰,主場球迷歡聲雷動。費城人則陷入震驚與絕望——這一個傳球失誤不僅結束比賽,也終結他們的2025球季。
這場比賽的結局極具歷史意義。這是美國職棒大聯盟(MLB)國聯季後賽史上第一次以「再見失誤(walk-off error)」晉級下一輪的案例。而在整個大聯盟歷史上,上一回出現類似的戲碼,已經要追溯到 2016年美聯分區系列賽,當時多倫多藍鳥隊因德州遊騎兵隊二壘手奧多(Rougned Odor)的再見失誤而晉級。如今,道奇以同樣戲劇化的方式締造國聯新篇章。
此役中,來自日本的王牌投手 佐佐木朗希(Rōki Sasaki) 扮演關鍵角色。道奇在比賽後段派出他後援登板,佐佐木以冷靜沉著的投球壓制住費城強大的打線,投滿三局僅用36顆球,送出 2次三振、零被安打、零保送,完美達成「九上九下」。他的穩定表現成功守住局勢,為道奇延長戰奠定勝利基礎,也讓他再度證明自己不僅能先發,更能在關鍵時刻化身勝利守護者。
值得一提的是,韓籍球員金河成(Kim Ha-seong) 在比賽中也有一次令人捏一把冷汗的守備判定。當時他在本壘攻防中疑似未踩穩壘包,好在經過慢動作重播確認,他在補踩動作完成後才算得分,讓道奇隊免於爭議。球迷戲稱「幸好他後來又補踩一下,否則今晚的英雄劇本就得改寫。」
隨著這場勝利,道奇以總比分晉級 國聯冠軍賽(NLCS),他們的對手將在密爾瓦基釀酒人(Brewers)與芝加哥小熊(Cubs) 之間誕生。對道奇而言,這不僅是一次戲劇性的晉級,更象徵著球隊本季二刀流王牌大谷翔平與佐佐木朗希聯手效應的極致發揮。
這場比賽可謂是2025年MLB季後賽迄今最具話題性的戰役之——從投手完美中繼、再見失誤的命運轉折,到球迷高喊的「一顆球改寫一季命運」,都將讓這一夜被長久銘記於大聯盟季後賽的歷史中。
The 2025 MLB National League Division Series delivered one of the most unforgettable and dramatic games in recent postseason memory. On October 9 (U.S. time), the Los Angeles Dodgers faced off against the Philadelphia Phillies at Dodger Stadium in a do-or-die Game 4. After an intense 11-inning battle, the game ended in stunning fashion when Phillies reliever Orion Kerkering committed a costly throwing error with two outs and the bases loaded—allowing the winning run to score on a walk-off wild throw. The Dodgers advanced to the National League Championship Series (NLCS) in the most improbable way possible, while the Phillies’ season ended in heartbreak.
The game began as a tense pitcher’s duel, with both teams’ starters trading zeros through the early innings. The offenses gradually found opportunities, but neither side could deliver a decisive blow, and the game remained tied after nine innings. As the game moved into extra innings, every pitch and defensive play became crucial.
In the bottom of the 11th inning, the Dodgers loaded the bases with two outs. The Phillies appeared one out away from surviving another inning, but fate had other plans. Kerkering’s breaking ball slipped out of his hand, sailing past the catcher and bouncing to the backstop. The runner on third raced home easily as the crowd erupted. The Dodgers stormed the field in celebration, while the Phillies stood in disbelief—one errant pitch had just ended their playoff run.
This finish made MLB postseason history. It marked the first time in National League playoff history that a team advanced on a walk-off error. Across all of Major League Baseball, such a moment had only happened once before—in 2016, when a fielding error by Texas Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor allowed the Toronto Blue Jays to walk off and clinch their series.
A major factor in the Dodgers’ victory was Rōki Sasaki, the Japanese phenom who came out of the bullpen and completely shut down Philadelphia’s offense. Sasaki threw three perfect innings, retiring all nine batters he faced with just 36 pitches and recording two strikeouts. His composure and precision were vital in keeping the Dodgers alive until their eventual walk-off moment. Fans and analysts alike praised his performance as “flawless under pressure,” showing that Sasaki could dominate not only as a starter but also in the most high-stakes relief situations.
Korean infielder Kim Ha-seong also had a notable—and slightly nerve-wracking—moment. During a scoring play earlier in the game, he appeared to miss the base as he crossed home plate, but after review, it was confirmed that he touched it upon a quick recovery step. Commentators joked, “Good thing he went back to step on it—otherwise, tonight’s hero story would’ve had a very different ending.”
With the victory, the Dodgers punched their ticket to the NLCS, where they will face the winner of the Milwaukee Brewers vs. Chicago Cubs series. For Los Angeles, the win was more than just survival—it symbolized the culmination of a season powered by star two-way player Shohei Ohtani and fellow Japanese ace Rōki Sasaki, whose combined impact has transformed the Dodgers into a postseason juggernaut.
This game will likely go down as one of the defining moments of the 2025 MLB postseason—a night of perfect relief pitching, unthinkable misfortune, and a single mistake that changed everything. For Phillies fans, it was a cruel ending; for Dodgers fans, it was pure baseball magic.
