Phillies prepare for Angels

The mighty Arden Hills Phillies begin playoff action on Thursday, with a 6 p.m. game against the Angels at Island Lake East. The Phillies are seeded 3rd in the South Division, while the Angels were 6th in the West. The two teams played earlier in the year, with the Phillies coasting to an easy victory. If the Phillies win, they will face a team they have not seen before, the Athletics, at noon on Saturday at Perry Park. A loss on Thursday would mean a 6 p.m. Friday matchup against the loser of the Rangers/Red Sox game; that game would take place at Snail Lake West. This is a double elimination tournament, meaning the Phils will play up to five games in the next four days. All your playoff action will be right here.
