The Phillies tonight won the game they weren't supposed to win, beating C.C. Sabathia and the Brewers to go up 2-0 in the NLDS. Brett Myers, who had gotten lit up in his last two starts, gave up a run in the first inning but settled down and gave up just one more hit in the remainder of the game.
Game 3 is Saturday in Milwaukee; the Brewers clearly look like the "just happy to be here" team, just as Philly was last year. And maybe this game- in which Sabathia was knocked out in the fourth inning- will prevent Phils fans from demanding his signing this offseason.
