I don't understand why the Phillies are considered the underdog in the World Series. The Phillies won the World Series last year against Tampa Bay, and now they have a 1-0 lead on the New York Yankees. Can anyone make sense of this?
Cliff Lee was fantastic in game 1, but the argument is being made that the rest of the Phillies pitching staff is not good enough to keep with the Yankees' stacked lineup. If this is the case then you need to look at the Yankees' pitching staff. C.C. Sabathia was the best pitcher on the Yankees and he got rocked by the Phillies lineup.
If game 1 is any indication of what is to come for the rest of the series then I will have to say the Phillies are on their way to winning a second consecutive World Series Championship.
