It has become a three-Creature race but its a long way from being over with six races remaining.This week theyll be looking for the driver can that get it down under the lights in front of friends and family. Ben Bomberger: Tony StewartI'm expecting a few Johnson's this week, so I'm going against the grain and picking Smoke to visit Victory Lane and get back into the hunt for a third championship. If Kahne wants to salvage his Chase that has gone downhill, this is the track to do it, a place that hes won at before and has always run well at. Mason Dunn: NO PICK SENTNo pick sent. Adam Heasley: NO PICK SENTNo pick sent. Danielle Henderson: Kasey KahneNormally I wouldn't pick Kasey Kahne, but in the past weeks Kahne has been finishing well. He may not have the best run, but he sure does find his way up front quickly and I hope this week he can stay there. Kara Martin: Kasey KahneNo comments sent. SM Napier: Kasey KahneKahne has won three of the last seven races at the track, always qualifies well, and should have another great race at the track. David Phillips: NO PICK SENTNo pick sent. Jen Preston: Juan Pablo MontoyaMontoya doesn't have a top five in Charlotteshoot he only has one finish better than 28th (an eighth place effort earlier this year)but he's my championship and race pick.Montoyas average finish in the Chase thus far is 3.5, and despite his poor finishes at Lowes in the past, I look for Montoya to continue making championship strides and make a statement under the lights in Charlotte. Rob Tiongson: Kasey KahneIt seems like Kahne has some of his 2006 groove back and based on how he raced in Atlanta last monthby winningI look for him to duplicate his success with a win at Lowe's. The title may be out of reach for the No.9 team, but a Chase effort with wins and solid finishes is not out of the question.

After four innings with the score still 1-0 it looked like it was going to be a pitching duel between Clayton Kershaw and Cole Hamels till the late innings.Then the fifth inning happened and the Phillies scored five runs to take a 5-1 lead in the top of the fifth inning with Carlos Ruiz hitting a three run homer that highlighted the scoring. The Phillies took a 5-1 lead into the bottom of the inning.Manny Ramirez hit a two run homer in the bottom of the frame to spark the Dodgers and the inning ended with a 5-4 Phillies lead. Both teams failed to score in the sixth and seventh innings.Raul Ibanez drove in three more runs in the top of the eighth inning to extend the Phillies lead to 8-4. The Dodgers came back in the bottom of the eighth to score two more runs and close the gap to 8-6 which wound up being the final score.Thirteen pitchers were used in the game but only two pitchers from each team allowed all the scoring. Kershaw and George Sherrill combined to allow the eight Phillies runs while Hamels and Ryan Madson allowed the six runs by the Dodgers.Most of the scoring was done in the fifth and eighth innings with 13 of the 14 runs scored in the game crossing the plate in those innings.Brad Lidge picked up his third save of the postseason despite allowing a hit and a walk in the ninth inning.The Dodgers outhit the Phillies 14-8 but only four of those hits were for extra bases while three of the Phillies hits were for extra bases.
Kershaw had no command with five walks and three wild pitches but Hamels barely stayed in the game long enough to notch the win.The Phillies baserunners had a bad night with Shane Victorino being thrown out on a stolen base attempt and was picked off first base by Kershaw. Carlos Ruiz was doubled off of first base when Matt Kemp threw to first base after catching a fly.Today’s Games:Philadelphia Phillies at Los Angeles Dodgers at 4:07 ET on TBSStarters: Pedro Martinez will be making his first postseason start as a Phillie.
