One Down, Two to Go

Woot woot! So the Phillies won yesterday afternoon, 3-1 against the Brewers in the NLDS. Whew. We have officially done better than we did in the playoffs last year! I'm having trouble talking about the whole thing, even though I am ridiculously excited, because winning one playoff game is not enough. We need to win the NLDS and in order to do that, we need to win today (and one time after that). Regardless, Cole Hamels was amazing yesterday--so amazing that he should have stayed in the whole game. And my boyfriend, Chase Utley, had a clutch double to score 2 runs in the 3rd and an amazing defensive play in the 8th. Brad Lidge gave us pretty much the only heart attack all game. Our hitting is still a little cool, but I am confident that the win Cole Hamels got for us yesterday will help the rest of the team relax and start hitting again--they'll need to be on their best game against CC Sabathia tonight. So yay Phillies!
