Phillips pops out to Fielder over in foul territory (I think).

*The player would need to be added to the 40 man roster if they weren’t on it before they could be activated. They just wouldn’t have needed to be on the 40 man roster by any other deadlines.
So those are the rules around eligibility. But what actually happens when someone gets injured? The playoff roster is set each round when the lineup card is delivered to home plate. If the first game of the series is postponed, teams can reconfigure their roster as long as the series hasn’t started.
If a player is injured, they can be replaced during the series using the rules stated above. If the player is replaced they cannot come back in the current round, nor can they play in the following round.

Ah, I didn't know that. Coleman was a little before my time.
I get why they feel the need for the rule, because there would be teams that would use the DL as their reserve roster in the playoffs. But it's terrible that teams may have to play an entire post season series short handed.
Could you imagine if the 1990 WS hadn't ended in 4 games? No Hatcher and no Davis, and a 23-man roster? Ouch.

Rolen! RBI double makes it 3-0 good guys.

Rolen doubles and Cabrera scores after OCab goes to third on Bruce's soft grounder. 3-0 Reds.

Dickerson is showing why we didn't need to keep him. Turned around badly on the Rolen double.

BTW, I agree with the point that losing Edmonds for the playoffs could be an unfortunate game changer. His experience, leadership and the ability to deliver a big at-bat in a crucial situation would be of great service to the Reds. I sincerely hope he's healthy for the playoffs because the Reds could use him even if he's not starting much.

Miggy brings in Rolen with an RBI single, goes to second on the throw home.
At least I think it was a single. Didn't look like a double to me.
4-0 good guys.
