Things looked dire there for a little bit, but the Phillies prevailed tonight to hand Roy Halladay his 17th win of the season. Roy allowed four home runs for the first time in his career, yet fortunately for him (and most power pitchers) there were no…

Add one part thin air, one part erupting offense, one part bad pitching and you get a Coors Original. Not the beer, but a shootout in Denver, just like old times.
