Both teams have their rotations setup just right for this critical tourney elimination series.
Gm1: Halladay vs Carlton. What a way to start the Series! 0-0 through 10. Finally it's Lonnie Smith with the pinchit game winner off Madson. 1-0 First Phils in the game and the Series.
Gm2: Lee vs Ruthven. The Aces rotation quality looks dauting. Lee delivers a 3-0 Shutout with power by Jimmy Rollins. 1-1 Series tied.
Gm3: Espinosa vs Hamels. Aces quality is really telling when you get to the third and fourth starters... but Espinosa pitches a gem. Hamels does him 1 better. 1-0 Aces, Rollins is the only scoring after he trots home on a Sac Fly following a Triple.
Gm4: Christenson vs Worley. First Phils get on the board thanks to Rose, Victorino counters for the Aces. 3-1. First Phils are facing a final elimination game.
Gm5: Carlton vs Halladay. After the amazing Game 1 performances, expectations are high for the rematch. The Aces of Aces do not disappoint. Another 1-0 game. Maddox and Polanco flashing the leather. In the end, it's Halladay's revenge and the First Phils are the 4th team knocked out.
A total of 10 Runs scored by both teams in the Series. When the Aces are on, they are unstoppable, but the First Phils rotation responded and gave their team a chance. It just wasn't to be.
Phour Aces will move into the 3rd round of the Loser's Bracket. They will need 3 more Series Wins to make it to the Final 3...
