And, although the Phils haven't been hitting with RISP, the Rays aren't hitting at all. Longoria and Upton have had their moment in the sun and now are regressing.
The Phils are going to do some serious hitting in games 3 and 4 -- lead by Rollins and Howard -- Moyer and Blanton will each give the team 6 effective innings, the bullpen will shine and we'll be heading into game 5, with Hamels starting, ahead 3-1.
