Before yesterday's win, it seemed that the media came to a foregone conclusion that CC Sabathia would pitch a complete game shutout and totally demoralize the Phillies and their rabid fans, tying up the series 1-1 as it headed to Milwaukee for the weekend...not so fast. Brett Myers worked his bat magic and the rest is history, Phils win 5-2. Click on URL for full article recapping the amazing game, with so in depth look at Myers' at bats, Victorino's slam, the Phillies base stealing, and the struggles of Burrell, Utley, and Howard.

  • Glad to see you're in better spirits this morning
  • A Phils win has that effect on me.
  • I guess the whole 3 days rest 4 times in a row finally got to him. what a frickin game!
  • yea i got tht feeling too. i knew the phils might have a chance if the good brett showed up which other than in the first inning he did man i was worried after seeing him in the first. How bout Shane he should have said after the game "holliday who" tht would have been great. In game 3 we got old reliable going Phils in a sweep. After seeing fastballs from Hamels and Myers the Brew crew's timing will be all screwed up.
