Job well done. Cole Hamels, great job tonite, you struck out 13. You truly deserved the MVP. First pitcher to ever go 5-0 in post season. Incredible. J-roll, you're my boy. Okay, my job is done here. (scurries away)
He's trying that reverse karma crap he pulled on the Red Sox in the ALCS. Problem is that he bragged about afterwards. The karma gods may not like that very much. We'll see.
Cole Hamels will be first starting pitcher in history to pitch on one day, and his team winning the next, giving him the victory. Phillies to score 3 in the bottom of the 6th on Tuesday night giving Hamels his win. Congrats Phillies. Tremendous job.
This is going to sound strange but, even though the Phillies won the series its the Rays who looked like the more dangerous team to me. I watched every game and it just seemed like the Rays were about to explode, answer the call or make the timely hits or outs when needed. Outside of Hamels, who was brilliant, and Lidge, who was equally as brilliant, the Rays pitching seemed better top to bottom. 4-1 Philly is a strange outcome to me.
