World Series Game 4 - "This is Wor"

GAME 4
Hughes vs Oswalt
Phillies 9, Yankees 4


2 runs in 1/3 of an inning was all that manager Weinrib needed to see before he played captain hook and yanked Roy Oswalt from the hill.  Vance Worley came on and threw 5 perfect innings in relief where he didn't allow a hit and fanned 9.  That performance was more than enough to help the Phils grab back the momentum.  A 3 run blast by Raul Ibanez in the bottom of the 2nd didn't hurt either.  JRoll chipped in a 2 run shot later in the game as the Phigtin's turned a early deficit into much ado about nothing en route to a big win.  Both JRoll and Ibanez posted 3 RBI games.  Polanco chipped in with 2 RBI's as every Phil reached base via the hit.  Phil Hughes was Yanked by skipper Hopcroft after 3 and a third.  Once again a small ballpark and the longball victimized this flyball pitcher.
Series tied 2-2
