If the Phillies sweep Washington, and the Astros get swept by the Cubs, the Phils win the NL Wildcard. If the Astros win one of their remaining three, there would be a tiebreak game if the Phillies sweep the Nationals. If the Astros win two, the Phils are done. A tiebreak would be forced if the Astros get swept and the Phils lose one more.




Fire yp that HI DEF, my man.

"yp"???
You know what I meant.

Hi-def Phillies is one of the greatest inventions of all time. You never truly realize how much Ryan Howard sweats, or how much stubble is on Cory Lidle's neck. It makes my outrageous paycheck-eating cable bill totally worth it. Mrs. Beerleaguer had this crazy idea to start "scaling back." I'd rather eat Ramen noodles seven days a week just to see 1/3 more patrons talk on their cell phones and wave.

Of course I'd rather see them win outright but wouldn't a tiebreak game be something? Talk about high anxiety.
