After a pair of ninth-inning comebacks in Colorado, should Philadelphians expect anything else?
A Walk, a hit by pitch, and Jimmy Rollins' two-run double to the right-center field gap gave the Phillies a walk-off win in Game 4 of the NLCS, leaving them only 1 win away from reaching the World Series for the second consecutive year. Need some perspective on how unbelievable this game was?
(Courtesy of Jayson Stark at ESPN.com): "There have been 1,251 postseason games in baseball history. Only two others --two -- ever ended this way, with a walk-off extra-base hit by a team that was one out away from losing."
The last time something like this happened was Kirk Gibson's infamous homerun in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series ("I can't believe what I just saw").
