Jimmy Rollins if I were a female I would marry you! \u00a0That was an amazing comeback clutch performance from you. \u00a0Lets start off by saying I thought this game was going to be another BLOW OUT. \u00a0Phillies go up 2-0 at the end of the 1st inning thanks to a Ryan Howard 2run shot. \u00a0But then the Phillies went DRY. \u00a0I mean BONE DRY. \u00a0It wasn’t until the bottom of the 6th inning that the Phillies finally put another run on the board. \u00a0But at that point the Dodgers added one prior to that inning to make it a 4-3 game. \u00a0And to be honest with you I thought thats how it was going to end. \u00a0Until the 9th inning, bottom of the ninth that is.<\/p>\n

Let me step aside for one second and just say that Brad Lidge came in the top of the 9th and got the final 2 outs and looked REALLY GOOD in doing so. \u00a0Ladies and Gentlephills we may have our closer back at this moment. \u00a0And this moment is all that matters.<\/p>\n

Back to the topic at hand. \u00a0Bottom of the 9th inning, Dodgers have Broxton on the mound. \u00a0If you have watched any baseball at all this year you know how dominating Broxton has been in a closing situation. \u00a0First batter up was Ibanez who got out, then it was Pedro Feliz, but Charlie says no no, lets put Mr Matt Stairs up to the plate. \u00a0I mean a fastball homerun hitting facing a pitcher that throws 100+ mph is a DREAM for Matt. \u00a0A great at bat draws a walk with 0 outs. \u00a0 Now this is where it gets really good for me personally. \u00a0Mr. Clutch himself, Carlos Ruiz, TAKES a 100mph fastball on the ELBOW. \u00a0Something that i feel deserves more credit then ppl are giving. \u00a0The CATCHER took a PITCH and leaned into a 100mph fastball….let me see you do that. \u00a0So man on 1st and 2nd 1 out. \u00a0Gregg Dobbs pinch hits for Lidge, tries to poke one over Blakes (3b) head but is unsuccessful at doing so. \u00a02 down man on 1 & 2 still… and this is when the magic happened boys and girls. \u00a0Jimmy Rollins steps into the plate gets to a 1-1 count with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th and cracks a shot into right center scoring both winners and I jump up and down with joy freaking out screaming and waking up my wife and children. \u00a0Good times, they understand, they have too understand haha!<\/p>\n

What a great game and what a great finish. \u00a0Thank you Phillies for everything keep this going and we could have #2 before we know it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
