Aaron was a first-round pick of the Phillies in 2014 and debuted in the majors a year later. "We've done this a few times now, and it's pretty cool," Aaron said. "He has such a good story of how he's got to this position that he's in right now," Aaron said Tuesday afternoon. "Growing up, I always wanted to be as good as him, and I went to almost every one of his baseball games, basketball games, football games. But this is the first time one of the brothers is a pitcher who will actually face his brother. We're blessed to be in this position against each other and on the same field.

Austin Nola was traded two years ago to San Diego, and he was the team’s starting catcher this season, finding his place in the majors by playing the position that taught him to love the game again. He called his parents in June — just as Aaron Nola was pitching against Atlanta — and told them he was finally headed to the majors. “He hit some jabs with me — ‘Oh, I have more hits than you in the big leagues,’ and I’m like, ‘I haven’t even been to the big leagues yet.’ We had a lot of fun with it.” Austin Nola was a minor-league free agent in January 2019 when he accompanied his younger brother to an event in South Jersey honoring him. The Nolas are just the third set of brothers to face each other in a League Championship Series and the first since Sandy Alomar and Roberto Alomar met in 1997. “Our journeys are very different, so we don’t relate in that, but our work ethic and how we conduct business is very similar,” Austin Nola said. Austin Nola said his younger brother probably could have pitched for the Phillies in 2014 immediately after they drafted him seventh overall. “It’s supposed to be played, and it’s supposed to be fun. The older Nola’s path to the majors — which converged Wednesday with his brother’s when they faced off in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series — was a bit less direct. That led to him playing second and third as he moved around the infield trying to find his way out of the minors. But none of those positions provided the spark Nola was looking for, placing his career at a crossroads. SAN DIEGO — Austin Nola played baseball his entire life, but the game was no longer fun.

A.J. Nola felt like he would be pitching in the National League Championship Series as he flew from Baton Rouge to San Diego on Tuesday to see his sons.

Oh, and his son Aaron will pitch to his son Austin Wednesday night in a professional game for just the third time. “Hey,” A.J. “I know his stuff very well,” Austin said after Tuesday’s opener. “Once I got in the stadium, I started loosening up and getting more relaxed,” A.J. Austin does catch his brother during the off-season as well. “We’re living the dream.” Austin is 1-for-5 against his brother with a strikeout in 2021 and game-winning single this season.

Aaron Nola, Austin Nola Make MLB History in Game 2 of NLCS (Sports Illustrated)

The brothers squared off against each other at Petco Park for a monumental matchup.

“It was a lot of anticipation, I was real anxious before the game,” A.J. But Austin got the last laugh, drilling an RBI single in the fifth inning to cut the Phillies’ lead to 4-3. After the pair’s first meeting, Fox’s Ken Rosenthal caught up with the brothers’ parents in the stands and interviewed their father, A.J., who was wearing both a Phillies and Padres jersey. Wednesday’s Game 2 of the NLCS was notable for many reasons, but there was only one reason to tune in for the Nola family. Austin’s single kicked off a huge rally for the Padres. In the first, Aaron got the better of his older brother by inducing a groundout to third base.
