Strong Position
Paul Hagen advises the Phillies not to let up:
And all I can think about are Alan Greenspan and Larry Bowa.
The former chairman of the Federal Reserve once warned about "irrational exuberance" in the stock market. (And, hoo, boy, doesn't he look smart now?) And when Bowa managed the Phillies, he once illustrated his point in a postgame press conference by stepping from behind the podium and pantomiming the proper way to step on the neck of an opponent once he's down.
The Phillies are in a great position to win the series, and the Saturday matchup favors them as well. We'll see if they have the boots to stomp the Brewers.
