Here's the Brad Lidge the Dodgers wish they were facing, the one who gave up the monster home run to Albert Pujols in the 2005 NLCS.
Here's the Brad Lidge they are facing.
Phillies fans looked nervous today when two Dodgers reached base against him in the top of the ninth, but Matt Kemp and Nomar Garciaparra, especially Garciaparra, were overmatched by him. Game over.
Sound familiar, Dodgers fans?
