Where Does Last Night's Win Rank for You?

It was epic. It was insane. It was perhaps the highlight of what has been a turbulent and injury prone season. Where does it rank for you?

We’ve seen some incredible moments this season (i.e. Roy’s Perfect Game, Jimmy’s Walk-Off) but was last night’s come from behind victory the best this year?

Down 9-2 with just six outs remaining, the Phillies touched up the Dodgers relievers for eight runs, culminated by Carlos Ruiz’s smash-double into the gap to score two in the ninth. Some PN readers have been around longer than others; could this be one of the greatest regular season moments ever? Forget the playoffs, those games are on another level.

In my opinion, the perfect game stands out a bit more, although that’s been diminished ever so slightly due to the fact there have been so many no-hitters and perfects game’s this season. As it may be, this comeback will stand out for this year and many to come, and rightfully so.

Tell us what your favorite regular season moments have been: this year and in years past. Hell of a game!
