The Philadelphia Phillies, with quite a bit of help from Dodgers' short-stop Rafael Furcal, have won the National League Championship Series and will continue on to the Fall Classic. Leadoff hitter Jimmy Rollins hit a lead-off HR and Los Angeles had a back-breaking 5th inning which saw Rafael Furcal commit an astonishing 3 errors.
Cole Hamels had another strong start for the Phillies, showing why he's now one of the best 3 left-handers in baseball. 7 strong innings for the San Diego native, allowing 5 hits and 3 walks while striking out 5. Philadelphia closer Brad Lidge saved yet another game, and has yet to blow one all year.
Congratulations to the city of Philadelphia and their beloved Phils.
