ONE MORE WIN

That’s the cheer that can be heard on the streets of Philly, and the surrounding area.

It’s amazing, and, just like their bid to the World Series, too good for words.  We’ve been waiting for so long, and FINALLY, it’s here….

The only thing standing in our way? Game 5. 

But, while we may have one more game to play, I have complete confidence…and why is that?

Because we have Cole Hamels.  It’s Game 1 all over again…and we all know how that came out…with a win :)

You better believe that if we win it all tonight, I will be in the city tomorrow, watching the parade. In fact, I might even go tonight…we’ll see.

First, let’s go over Game 4….
It was awesome. We were so good, our pitcher even hit a home run, which was probably the best one I’ve ever seen.  Ryan Howard hit two long ones, and Jayson Werth added one in for good measure.  We stepped all over the Rays’ toes, but did it the good old-fashioned way: by showing we have talent.

Let’s hope that Game 5 is just as exciting, which, regardless, it’ll probably blow Games 1-4 out of the water!!!!

LET’S GO PHILS!!!

tonight…

Really excited for tonight!!!!!!!!

It’s gonna be amazing, I’m sure…and Cole is gonna pitch great!!!!!!

LET’S GO PHILS!!!

ps–congrats to the rays for pulling off a HUGE win last night!!! Beating the Red Sox 13-4 is absolutely awesome!!! Especially in the playoffs!!!!

yessss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As if I needed another reason to love Chase Utley..haha….

The Phils come on top after a nail-biter, 3-2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was the greatest game I’ve seen in a long time…and that includes the 20-run game I went to on Memorial Day!!! :)  

After Furcal’s error in the sixth, Victorino just seemed like he was destined to score.  And then Chase came up to bat. And on the first pitch, knocked it out of the park. Now, I’m a HUGE Chase Utley fan..HUGE..seriously…and after seeing that home run, I couldn’t sit down…then two batters later, Pat the Bat put us on top by bombing yet another bad pitch by Lowe. Hamels pitched fabulously, and it showed. Like everyone said, it was gonna be a pitching showdown. And it was, only for the Dodgers, it didn’t turn out as well as they’d hoped.

And so, the Fightin’s keep it coming today, at 435….it, again, should be a nail-biter, and always fun to watch :)
Also, the Red Sox and the Rays start their fight to represent the AL at 837..that, as well, should be fun to watch.
LET’S GO PHILS!!!!

tonight’s(!!!!!), and the rest of the series, breakdown.

Tonight’s the night!!!!! I’ve been waiting all week for this series to start, and it’s finally here!!!!!
Even better? Home field advantage!!! Well, for the first two games, at least…if it goes to seven, then we’ll have 4 at home.

What does home field advantage mean, exactly? As good ol’ Uncle Charlie says…

“I think a home-field advantage becomes an advantage to us in two
ways. I think our fans, I think
it’s very noisy. I think our players, they like to play for our fans,
especially when all the energy is in the ballpark. I think that
definitely plays a part in it.  And the fact that we would have four games here, if it
happens to go to seven games. I think that definitely helps us. I think
you’re going to see two very balanced teams. And I don’t see no reason
why we can’t be the winners, though.” 

The one element that everyone seems to agree on in this series, that will win it for that certain team, is pitching.  Pitching, when used correctly, is an extremely dangerous weapon. 

The series matchups (through game 4):
Lowe v. Hamels
Billingsley v. Myers
Moyer v. Kuroda
Blanton v. TBD

Once the starters do their job, it’s up to the bullpen.

Both teams are hard, home-run hitters.  It’ll be a toughly fought battle to represent the NL in the World Series, and I cannot wait to watch it!!!!!

Don’t forget to watch, 8:22 on FOX….LET’S GO PHILS!!!! :)

still giddy…

i’m loving it!!!!!!!

these next few days are gonna be TORTURE…but what makes it better? watching the competition, of course…

who will move onto the ALCS?? i’m gonna take a wild guess…

**the angels and the red sox will probably go to game 5, since both team is so commited to win…at the end of game 5? it’ll be a hard faught game, just like the entire series…but i have to go with the angels. noone has 100 wins in the regular season then goes home in the playoffs…or do they? i guess we just have to wait and see…
**tampa bay will win it tonight. they are actually winning as i’m typing, 2-0 in the top of the third…if chicago can come back and beat them, i don’t think they’ll be able to last the next game…but, like the bo sox and the angels, i guess we’ll just have to wait and see…

**PITCHING MATCHUP**
