Yeah. The errors are inexcusable. The worst is knowing that they were likely avoidable with better umpiring.
Umpiring has been bad all season, though. Not sure why I would expect it to get better in the Postseason.

But either way, the missed call at 2nd and the missed HBP are inexcusable.
I agree with this on all accounts. I think Utley got 3rd. Unfortunately its probably the only base he legitimately earned. Haha.

Any more reasons why the Reds lost?

Don't start. I'm not making excuses. The Reds pissed down their legs and Phillies took advantage.

If Utley isn't given the free base then it's likely the inning doesn't unravel like it did. Not an excuse for the loss, though. The Reds could have made the bad calls a non-factor. They didn't. They choked on applesauce.
