Chase Utley and Pat Burrell lifted two balls just about far enough that they rested in the bleachers to put the Phillies on top of the NCLS on Thursday night.

Dodgers pitcher Derek Lowe had been superb through five innings until an error in the sixth led to him losing a bit of his composure and serving up the two long balls.

If the Dodgers had taken game one then you feared for the Phillies but now it is very much game on as they say.
