Blanton Not Sharp Against Dodgers – No Decision
Joe Blanton was not too sharp in his Game 4 start against Los Angeles, yielding three runs off seven hits and four walks while striking out four. While the Phillies were still able to muster a win once Blanton exited, you have to wonder whether they’d throw him out for a start if they make the World Series or if they’d opt to go to a three-man rotation.

Victorino Blasts Tying Homer in 8th Inning
Shane Victorino belted a two-run homer for Philadelphia in the eighth inning to tie Game 4 up in what was eventually a Phillies win. Victorino now has a league-high 11 postseason RBI. Regardless of where Charlie Manuel places him in the lineup, he’s swinging one of the most dangerous bats at the moment. (Rotowire)
