Game 5: Phils Hang On- Barely
Game 5: Phils Hang On- Barely
nybaseballdigest.com — The Phillies came out firing early on all cylinders and struggled late to hold on. Although this was a formula for success you have to wonder if it will work in the Yankees favor back at the Stadium. With Pedro Martinez and TBD starting Games 6 and 7 the Phils must replicate last nights game.  ... (more) Game 5: Phils Hang On- Barely
Desperately Seeking Relief
paullebowitz.com — The main reason I picked against the Phillies in the NLDS and NLCS is because of their bullpen. Brad Lidge's mental state is such a mess that they can't trust him at all. Ryan Madson is shaky in his own right and they were reduced to Brett Myers backing up Madson. It's amazing they got this far. (more) Desperately Seeking Relief

Ryan Madson comes in all deer-in-headlights and blows the game. What the @%&#?! This game may have just cost the Phillies the season. ... (more) What the @%&#?!

athbloggs.blogspot.com — On Saturday in the Joe Nathan make Armando Benitez look clutch post we spoke about the troubles that Joe Nathan has had in his playoff career. If you look at the numbers, it’s quite unbelievable really. It’s like he’s a completely different pitcher. But that’s what pressure does. You squeeze ... (more) The true measure of Rivera's genius.
