PHILS WIN!

Posted on Saturday September 27th, 2008 by Jim Lynch

The Phillies have won the NL East.

The Phillies won the National League East Division title today, beating the Washington Nationals 4-3 at Citizens Bank Park.

The triumph in front of the 50th sellout crowd of the season gave the Phillies their second consecutive division title.

The Phillies won’t know their playoff opponent for at least one more day. The New York Mets and Milwaukee Brewers are still alive in the race to be the National League wild-card team.

[...]

If the Mets win the wild-card, then the Phillies play the Los Angeles Dodgers and have the home-field advantage.

If the Brewers win the wild-card, then the Phillies will play the Brewers and have the home-field advantage.

Way. To. Go!!

    And for the second straight year, the New York Mets choked in the clutch.

    Hey, I live in Pennsylvania, and I don’t care about the Phillies. Of the teams playing, I hope the Cubs win, just because the Cubs haven’t won it in 100 years.

    My favorite baseball team is the Cincinnati Reds; I used to listen to Al Michaels and Joe Nuxhall do the radio play-by-play back in the sixties.
