The Dodgers climbed back into the series with a stellar all-around effort in Game 3. As the saying goes however, momentum is only the next day's starting pitcher and Derek Lowe and Joe Blanton will be the key players in a pivotal Game 4.

Phillies were triumphant last night with Kentucky Joe Blanton on the mound and Ryan Howard's mammoth bat. The got their magic number down to 1, which could be done today when Jamie Moyer takes the mound against the Nationals. All this is made possible by the Mets choking like the pieces of crap   more...

The Phillies are 4 wins away from the World Series for the first time since 1993. They have gotten this far with a deep lineup, good starting pitching when they needed it and the best bullpen in the league. The question now is if that's enough to get past Manny and the Dodgers. Here's my breakdown   more...

The Phillies have now won 5 games in a row while the Mets have now lost 4 of their last 5.   more...

From the rise of Cliff Lee and Carlos Quentin to the fall of Erik Bedard and Victor Martinez, there was no shortage of events to talk about. But now that the 2008 season is over, how will looking back help you look forward?   more...

Brett Myers worked his bat   more...

Game 3 just wasn't meant to be. Although they stayed close all night and only lost by 3 runs, the Phillies lacked energy as the Brewers fed off the home crowd. The Phils repeatedly allowed runners on base and had to fight just to keep them from scoring. Starting with a shaky performance by Jame   more...

At the beginning of the season I predicted a measly 82 victories for the 2008 Philadelphia Phillies, with most of the losses to be squarely pinned on the shoulders of the rag-tag pitching staff. I thought the team's trademark would be a powerful offense to be followed by pitching that couldn't hold   more...
