World Series Game 4
Wow, who knew the Phillies actually had it in them. Even though I wanted them to win the series, I figured, along with most of America, that they couldn’t. So far though, Philadelphia has definitely proved me wrong. They won game 4 today in VERY convincing fashion. They annihilated tampa bay 10-2. Andy Sonnanstine had a horrible outing for Tampa, but its not like he had much run support from the offense. Where are the powerful bats that plagued the Red Sox in the ALCS? I used to cry every time Upton, Pena, or Longoria came to bat, anticipating another booming homer. Now, they are being shut down easily. And its not like the Phillies pitching is much better than the Red Sox…Jon Lester? Daisuke Matsuzaka? Josh Beckett? All good pitchers. Why couldn’t the Rays go in a hitting slump during the AlCS.
Regardless, congrats to the Phillies on winning game 4 in a blowout. One game left and the Rays miracle season will finally be over. Go Phillies.
