The Phils continued their NLDS with the Brewers tonight looking for the sweep. Jamie Moyer got the start but was roughed up a bit, allowing 2 runs on 4 hits in just 4 innings of work so the Phils immediately found themselves in a hole and would need a late rally to pull this one out. Now on to the game. In the bottom of the 1st, Prince Fielder sac flyed in one run and J.J Hardy singled in a second run for a 2-0 Brewer's lead. In the bottom of the 5th, Ryan Braun sac flyed in a run for a 3-0 lead. In the top of the 6th, Jayson Werth tripled and scored on a fielder's choice to cut the lead to 3-1. In the bottom of the 7th, Jason Kendall singled in a run for a 4-1 lead. Finally, in the top of the 9th, the Phils put the tying run aboard, loading the bases, but an interference call on the "Flyin Hawaiian",Shane Victorino, after Pedro Feliz hit into a double play, wiped out a run and the Phils momentum, as Carlos Ruiz grounded out to end it. So the Brewers cut the Phils lead to 2 games to 1, but the Phils still only need one win in game 4 tomorrow afternoon to advance to the NLCS, which they would host, since the Dodgers bumped off the Cubs earlier today.
