'08 Phightin's eliminate '08 Halos in 4

Game 1(@Phi)-"King" Cole Hamels only gave up 3 hits and no runs in 7 1/3 innings to lead the Phils to 3-0 victory over the Angels. Chase Utley had all 3 RBI including a homer and Brad Lidge was "lights out" in the 9th to pick up a save.

Game 2(@Phi)-Ervin Santana was on his game, holding the Phils to 1 run on 2 hits in 6 innings to lead the way to an Angels 3-1 win to tie the series at 1. Garrett Anderson and Chone Figgins each had 2 hits and K Rod picked up the save.

Game 3(@Laa)-Jamie Moyer and Ryan Madson held the Angels to 2 runs on 4 hits as the Phils take a 2-1 series lead by a 6-2 score. Pat "The Bat" Burell and Pedro Feliz homered for the Phils and Vladimer Guerrero and Jeff Mathis went yard for the Angels.

Game 4(@Laa)-The Phils exploded for 7 runs (4 that were earned) in the 2nd inning to lead the Phils to a 3-1 series victory by an 8-3 tally. Even though tiring early, Joey "cheesesteak" Blanton got the W for the Phightins. Matt Stairs lead the charge with a 2 run homer only to be pulled after 1 at bat. The Angels were very well managed by Douglas Zander but they just couldn't seem to get timely hitting. --contributed by Gary Bringhurst--
