Ryan Howard is your MVP and his Philadelphia Phillies now have a chance to do what no National League team has been able to do since the Reds of the mid-70’s. That’s win back-to-back World Series Championships.

Jayson Werth homered twice, Shane Victorino and Pedro Feliz also connected and the Phillies beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-4 in Game 5.

Now the Fightin’ Phills will have to wait. They’ll go for their third World Series title beginning next Wednesday night at New York or Los Angeles. The Yankees lead the Angels 3-1 in the ALCS, which resumes Thursday night Anaheim.

The Phillies really powered their way through this series scoring 35 runs in the five game set. The Dodger never had a chance. Los Angeles proved be a good team this post season, but the Phillies were just too much in the end.
