My prediction : Phillies in 5 games. Through the first 3 games, the Phillies have left an inordinate amount of runners on base. Ryan Howard and Pat Burrell have been terrible so far. If either one of them breaks out of their slump, it'll be bad news for the Rays.Frankly, there is no one in the Rays lineup that really strikes fear. The Phils have neutralized Upton and Longoria so far and no other Ray's player has been a problem yet.
Phils in 5 !

It could only happen in Philly!.....a classic case of Champagnus Interuptus.....this could be the momentum changer the Rays have been waiting for. Let's hope the juggernaut stays focused and the pitching continues to hold up, though the absence of Cole for the rest of the series is going to hurt.
Congratulations long suffering Phils Fans! A well desrved Championship. And how ironic that the champagne flows exactly four months after Philly Sports Fan posted ....."The Phillies are on a death spiral right now. They have lost 7 in a row and 15 out of their last 18 games. They are un-motivated and are simply going through the motions. Historically, when this happens to a baseball team, it's time to fire the Manager......" YA GOTTA BELIEVE!
Yes...Tug McGraw would be proud ! You do have to believe !
PhillySportsFan will now move onto Sports like Curling and Cricket.
