Eight teams are in the playoffs and the keys to the success of each include having an important player come up big. My focus will be on the eight below:   COLE HAMELS: The Phillies needed to win Game 1 since the Brewers have lined up CC Sabathia to pitch two of the last four games, Game 5 (if needed) on four days rest. Hamels did not disappoint as he was outstanding. He authored eight shutout innings, striking out nine and walking just one. The nine strikeouts were one shy of the postseason record for a Phillies’ starting pitcher.   Hamels was in total command as only three hitters reached base against him.

A win they had to have.   MIKE CAMERON: If not Cameron for the Brewers my choice would have been Corey Hart. It was a close call and Hart certainly found himself on the spot in Game 1 vs. the Phillies, striking out against Brad Lidge to leave the tying run in scoring position in Milwaukee’s 2-run loss.   Milwaukee leaned far too heavily on Ryan Braun’s bat down the stretch.

Cameron, Hart and company must relax and hit if the Brewers ar ...
