The Phillies’ mantra after tough losses has always been to flush it and move on. Nick Castellanos sees the situation differently now.
They don't find that old Laurel and Hardy line funny, of course. The vision of winning another World Series is fading like an old photo left out in the sun. Even making it as far as the National League Championship Series seems to be a bit of a reach after a 7-2 loss to the Mets in Game 3 of the NLDS Tuesday night.They're down two games to one in the best-of-five series. One more loss and a season that began with such promise will be over.
The Phillies' mantra after tough losses has always been to flush it and move on. Castellanos sees the situation differently now. Designated hitter Kyle Schwarber picked up on the theme."Our biggest thing is just that we have confidence in ourselves," he said."We have confidence in this group, that this is a very talented club. We've been through a lot of things and this is just another challenge, right? For us to come together and find a way to win a game.
That's still their best-case scenario. But it's also true that if they don't win Game 4 on Wednesday at Citi Field there will be no Game 5 at Citizens Bank Park on Friday.
