The baseball jammies didn't work. Yesterday's game couldn't have ended any worse - a walkoff win off of Roy Oswalt, who is scheduled to pitch Game 6* on Saturday.
Trent is back to his elephant PJs tonight as the Phillies attempt to join the 1986, 2004 and 2007 Red Sox on the short list of teams that came back from a 1-3 deficit in an LCS. (I have to remind readers that the 2004 Red Sox came back from an 0-3 deficit against the Yankees.)
Being keenly aware of two of those comebacks (and nearly another one in 2008), I feel comfortable with the Phillies' chances. Roy Halladay came to the Phillies for a situation exactly like tonight's game (he's leading 3-2 in the 6th), and then the series will swing back to Philly. I'm a bit concerned about Oswalt in Game 6 because he threw a side session before pitching in relief last night. But if the Phillies can survive that, there's no way Cole Hamels, and the vocal Phillies fans, will allow the Giants to win on Sunday.*

About this blog
Greg was born into a Yankee home and became a Red Sox fan in the 1980s. Now he's married to Christine, a die-hard Phillies fan {who will chime in here from time to time in red}. They have a young son, Trent, who hasn't professed an allegiance yet.

We had the same issues with Gregory when it came to Eagles outfit. He wore his Eagles shirt during the opening of the football season against the Redskins and lost...now he is not allowed to wear them on game days, he can wear them during he week but on game days...Maria thinks that Im a nut job...but its for the team....lol...
Not saying that I'm superstitious, but ... Trent definitely won't be wearing his baseball pajamas tomorrow night.
