Just call him Mr. November.
The Phillies this morning are still alive in the World Series.
And they have Chase Utley to thank for it.
Utley blasted two homers and Cliff Lee went seven solid innings last night as the Phils made sure the World Series would go back to the Big Apple for Games 6 and 7 Wednesday and Thursday nights.
His two dingers last night puts the unassuming Utley in some fairly high-profile company. Utley is now tied with Yankees legend Reggie Jackson for most homers in a World Series.
All Utley is doing is hitting .333 against the Bronx Bombers, with five homers and eight RBI.
Jackson of course earned the moniker of Mr. October. Today, of course, the World Series has stretched into the same month as Thanksgiving.
Meet Chase Utley. Mr. November.
