Fans who gathered in taverns for Monday night's game looked on with concern as the Rockies took a lead late in the game but became jubilant as the Phillies made a comeback.

The Phillies must beat the Los Angeles Dodgers in a best-of-seven series that starts Thursday to reach the 2009 World Series.
