Phillies comeback to get knocked down

Well this has been a rough start for the Champions.  We have not been playing our best ball of late, lucky for us its a long season.  Last night not only did we lose but Lidge blew a save opportunity.  I know trust me so I’ll say it again for you.  Last night Brad Lidge blew a save opportunity.  We were down going into the bottom of the Eighth when Chase Utley ripped a solo homer.  Then Rual Ibanez decided to to some awesome base running to then give us the lead 5-4 going into the 9th inning.  As Lights out Lidge stepped up it was almost a sure bet.  But for some reason he was really struggling and didn’t look like the Lidge we know, rather the Lidge of the night prior.  Well to quicken this up Padres tied it in the 9th then took decided to squeeze 4 more runs out of us in that 9th inning for a score of 8-5.  But as the late great would say, I still have high hopes!
