2009 MLB Playoffs

Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

Jayson Werth gets a hold of a Kuo pitch and drives it to deep centre field for a solo shot.

Phillies 9 - Dodger's 3 top 8
 
Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

Can the Phillies win this already? I want to see them celebrate!
 
Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

Phillies got themselves into all kinds of trouble in the eighth, as the Dodger's loaded the bases with no outs. Madson would retire the side after walking Manny and giving up a single to Kemp. Dodger's only score one and the Phils are three outs away.

Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

Can somebody, anybody explain to me what Tom Hallion's strike zone is? It seems to change with every pitch.
 
Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

After Ruiz and Stairs go down in order, Jimmy Rollins reaches on a base hit up the middle. He goes to third on Shane Victorinos double, and reaches home on a wild pitch. Three more outs and the Phils go back to the World Series.

Phillies 10 - Dodgers 4

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss

Please beat the Yankees. I am rooting for you!

Plus back to back would be pretty outstanding.
 
Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

Brad Lidge comes in and retires the side and the Philadelphia Phillies are the National League Champions for 2009!!!!! WOOHOOO!!! LETS----GO----PHILLIES!!!

Did they play that part of the song over the PA system? I was listening to the song the other day and realized that part would be perfect. :D

Phils-Yanks would/will be a very good matchup, as a Phillies fan I'm impressed with the runs we've been driving in, but Rockie/Dodger pitching was quite erratic, lots of walks, wild pitches, hit batsmen. The Yankee pitching will be much tougher, and after Cliff Lee and maybe Pedro based on his only start in a month, the starters for the Phillies are a question mark. At least the bullpen looks good now. :rolleyes:

Agreed on all points. I was really hoping for Hamels to have a break out game tonight, but it was quite apparent he is still struggling. Dubee has to take Cole by the shoulders and tell him that whatever Ruiz calls, that's the pitch. Every time he shook Carlos off tonight, the pitch wound up being deposited into the seats. The other huge bright spot has been Brad Lidge. Whatever issues he was having in the RS, he appears to be over them now. He's 3 for 3 in save oppurtunities and hasn't given up a run so far in the post season. Of course Lidge is always one hanging slider from going back into a huge slump, so I won't breathe easy with him just yet. I have a feeling if we are going to win this thing it will have to be because of our bats, not our pitching.
