The Mets have hit a wall, pitching and hitting both went South. First place all season just to blow it on the last weekend :facepalm:

I fully expect them to lose this short series, they needed this next week off to regroup :thumbdown:

Great comeback win!!!!
Crazy. What's funny, Hoskins was the 1st batter in the 9th & struck out (1 out). The Phil's batted around (2 outs) & Hoskins was up again only to strike out again to end the inning as it started lol.

That game was worth waiting 11 years for. That's when the Cards knocked the Phills out of postseason to date. Karma time!

Nothing is sweeter than beating the Braves in Atlanta. There isn't a Phillies Phan alive that had the Phils making post-season. Should they knock the Braves out, I for one, will celebrate as if they won the WS. I loathe that franchise like the Philadelphia Egals!

I'd say it's beyond "they got lucky" as you had replied to me earlier Tabascocat. So, I'm going to toss this back at you. Who do the Mets play next? Oh wait....

Didn't have to tag you because I know you peeked in here lol.

As a Met fan, your Fan Card says you have to hate the Phillies AND the Braves. But I hope the Phillies crush the Braves and of the teams left, I hope they win it all.

I would have cheered for the Mets hands down. Phillies 1st baseman Rhys Hoskins blew that play, but it happens. Takes a team to win. Their bats were cold. Hopefully they can send the Braves packing from Philly.

Going to game this afternoon. First time since 2011 the Phil's played a post season home game. Nothing would make this lady happier than the Phil's sending the Braves packing. Oh, & the Boys ruining Sirianni's perfect record. It's all going down in Philly!

....And Penn State 5-0 defeats Michigan @Michigan 5-0.
My nerves are already shot! :laugh:

Going to baseball playoff games in person is awesome. I went to the Astros-Mets playoff games in teh Astrodome in 1986. What an incredible series that was especially game six. I went with my brother in law who wanted to leave in the top of the 9th inning when the Mets were losing 3-0. It ended up into extra innings with the Mets winning the penant. That game is thought of as one of the greatest MLB playoff games if not the greatest in history. Good Luck today Ranched. Beat the BRaves.

Strider gives up a three run bomb to Hoskins. Press needs to ask him if Ryhs was "lucky" . Strider is a little punk that needs to taught a lesson. 6-0 Phillies. Go Phils.

Awe, thank you dear. I remember that series. Incredible to say the least. I had a gut feeling the Phillies bats were going to ignite as much as the fans. I can't even explain the energy Citizens Park had yesterday. Not one fan could sit still. Totally electrifying.

Lol. A little wealthy punk. What's funny is he didn't even last 3 innings. Think they were on their 3rd pitcher bottom of 4th. Today is crazy with the Phil's playing at 2pm & our Boys here already to play those pesky Egals. If the Phil's win today, Philadelphia will go nuts. Atlanta is so cocky.

Surreal For Phillies Phans While Lightening Is Caught In A Bottle For Their Phillies
June Harper broke his thumb ironically at San Diego
Out for 2 months

June was the last time the Phil's swept a series away~

July was the last time they swept a series at home against a winning team~

Joe Girardi had the club buried deep in the NL East standings w/a sagging bullpen, defensive deficiencies & slumbering starts from some of the team's high-priced veterans, Girardi paid the price for Philadelphia's poor start 22-29 & was fired in June while Rob Thompson takes over as the interim coach~

Ten games remaining, take them out back & put them out of their misery, after all , they had just lost 4 consecutive games against the horrific Cubs~

Out of the blue, they made a wildcard first time in postseason since 2011 & the club's FO take away the word "interim" from Thompson & make him the Phil's new skipper. Fans are like "what" :eek:~

The under dogs fly to play the first place St. Louis Cards only to sweep them Philadelphia goes nuts~

The under dogs take another flight to visit the heavily favored World Champion Braves, they steal a game & head home w/the series tied. They shut down Atlanta's rookie who was 5-0 in playoff elimination starts & 2 other pitchers by the bottom of the 4th. Some say had Castellanos not have made that unbelievable catch, the Phil's may have blown that game, but instead won, 7-6.

Back home Citizens Bank Park is rocking, not a fan sitting as the Phil's clubber the Braves 8-3 while A. J Realmuto becomes the first catcher in the majors post season history to hit an inside the park home run first Phil's to have ever done so in postseason. They were 7-11 against the Braves in the regular season.

They head into the NLCS for the first time since 2010 by flying out to San Diego who nicely knocked out those much hated Dodgers~


Just 8 more wins! If they don't make it any further I'm fine with that, after all, seeing them shut down the Braves was in Philly, was absolutely PRICELESS! :muttley:
Go Braves!
A sympathy card has been sent!

It's baseball. Just as it is in all sports it's who gets hot at the right time during playoffs. No tears lost for me. I have nothing to do with the Braves (or Cowboys) winning or losing.
