NL Play in Game
Candlestick Park
Bennett vs Sanderson
Giants 5, Phillies 2
Giants get to Bennett early with 3 in 1st and 2 in 2nd then. Hang on to win 5 - 2. After Robby Thompson led off the bottom of the 1st with a 3 bagger. Todd Benzinger and Matt Williams both worked out walks to load the bases. An error by Phillies SS, Ruben Amaro, off a hard smash from Barry Bonds scored Thompson. Mark Carreon walked to score Benzinger and when Bennett uncorked a WP Williams came rambling home to make it 3-0. The aforementioned Williams (2-2, 2 walks, HR) ripped a 2 run shot with one out to make it 5-2.

Philly scratched out runs in the 3rd (HR by Tony Gonzalez) and the 4th off of an error by Will Clark, but the Giants got 4 scoreless innings to finish off the game from the bullpen trio of Brantley, Minutelli and Beck (9th save). The Giants will host the Cubs in the play in final. Winner goes on to the Wild Card game at Pittsburgh.
Jim's Phils faded at the end of the season. Looks like the theme was matched. They smacked us around earlier in the season winning 2 of 3.
Merry Christmas everyone,
Larry
