Two magic words: Game Seven

They are the two most magical words in sports.

Game Seven.

Doesn't matter if it's hockey, basketball, or in this case baseball.

The Dodgers beat the Astros last night to force a Game 7 in L.A. tonight.

And of course Chase Utley, on the ninth anniversary of his "World Bleeping Champions' moment during the Phils' 2008 World Series championship celebration, was right in the middle of it.

Utley did what he always seems to do - took one for the team.

Utley stood still as Justin Verlander bounced a pitch that hit him in the foot. It was the 200th time in his career that Utley was HBP. He scored a run and made a great play in the field.

Now it comes down to one night. Why do I get the feeling Utley will be right in the middle of things again tonight?
