Phils wrap up series over Rockies, headed back to NLCS....

The Philadelphia Phillies took the best shot the Colorado Rockies had but it wasn't enough as the defending World Series champions won in the Rocky Mountain state 5-4. The Phillies were down two runs in the top of the ninth but the defending champs didn't flinch and Ryan Howard would knock in the game tying runs on a double with two outs. Howard would be knocked in on the very next batter to give Philadelphia a 5-4 lead and the Brad Lidge picked up his second consecutive save. The Phillies will play the Dodgers in the NLCS starting on Thursday.
Phillies win best of 5 series 3-1
