Going into the NAtional League Championship series, the Phillies looked unbeatable. What a lineup: speed, power, youth, and experience. The team had it all. And then, it didn't. The Arizona Diamondbacks(aka 'The Snakes')(the 'Rattlers') put the Phillies in the record book as losers of Game 7, a shocking role and an even more shocking loss.
They were ahead early, the Phils, then AZ scored 1. Then scored 2 more; now 3-2. Then AZ scored again, now 4-2. LAte in the game, the Phillies loaded the bases and it looked ominous for the Snakes. But, a reliever put down the threat, and the Phillies didn't score. And they disappointed their home town believers who must wait until next year to try again.
World Series Teams: Texas Rangers v. Arizona Diamondbacks. Get your Snake bling now.
