The NL's two Division Series' featured game 2 of the Reds vs. the Phillies and the Giants vs. the Braves. Both of these games had one thing in common: comeback. The Reds and the Giants both at one point had 4-0 leads over their opponents. It looked like the Giants were going up 2-0 in the series while the Reds would've tied the series at 1-1. Neither of which had happened. The Phillies came back and managed to beat up the Reds thanks to some crucial errors and clutch hitting. Phillies win, 7-4, and grab a 2-0 series lead. The Giants couldn't hold their lead either as the 8th inning would doom them thanks to an error and an Adrian Gonzalez double. The Giants would lose in 11 innings, 5-4, thanks to Rick Ankiel's Home Run into McCovey Cove. The Braves tie the series at 1-1.
The Giants and the Reds learn that no lead is a safe lead, especially in the playoffs.
P.S. I would tell the Twins this but they never seem to learn. OH SNAP!!!
