Phillies' manager Rob Thomson not worried after team's game 3 loss vs Diamondbacks: "Just have to dust yourself off and come back tomorrow"

?Philadelphia Phillies may have lost the NLCS Game 3 against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field but manager Rob Thomson thinks this defeat was a one-off, and not a result of complacency. With this win, the Dbacks have crawled back in the NLCS and now the best-of-seven series currently stands at 2-1 in favor of Philadelphia.

In a post-game interaction, Thomson remained in high regard for his team and praised Dbacks rookie starting pitcher Brandon Pfaadt for an exceptional outing.

“Not lack of focus, I can tell you that," Thomson said. "These guys were locked in today coming into the ballpark, and all the work was really good. I think Pfaadt pitched very well. And we saw a couple of guys we haven't seen so far in the playoffs with Ginkel and Sewald and Thompson. Just have to dust yourself off and come back tomorrow, and that's what this team does.”

The Phillies will need to find their momentum back in the series in Friday's Game 4 at Chase Field.
