The Phillies were the only winner from the wild card round to win game one of the NLDS. The rested team, playing at home, going with their #1 starter while the road team goes with their #3 is a big advantage, but Philly overcame it.
I've enjoyed watching the Phillies in the postseason. Some great defense, big pitches when needed, manufacturing runs with singles, walks, and sacrifices.
Must-win today for the Braves, going with their 21-game winner, Kyle Wright. Phillies will have Wheeler on the mound, after holding the Cards scoreless in the previous series. Regardless of what happens today, the scene when the series moves to Philadelphia Friday night will be nuts.
