|
-
The Phillies lead the best-of-seven series, two games to none, and are halfway toward their first World Series appearance in 15 years.
|
-
Two sixth-inning homers off Derek Lowe in Game 1 lifted Philadelphia to its first victory in the N.L.C.S. since 1993.
|
-
This much is certain in the N.L.C.S.: the Dodgers and the Phillies are evenly matched in 60-something managers who have been some places and learned some things.
|
-
Brad Lidge’s high-octane fastballs and wickedly deceptive slider have closed games for the Phillies, who host the Dodgers in Game 1 of the N.L.C.S.
