According to Mike and Mike on ESPN no national league team has ever come back in the best of five playoffs after being down 0-2.
It has happened in the American League before.

    Yeah, but this is a Philly team ... they always seem to do strange things.

    Turn out the lights
    The party's over
    They say that
    All good things must end
    Call it tonight
    The party's over
    And tomorrow starts
    The same old thing again

    Ok, I got it. Here is who we start in games 3,4 and 5

    Game 3 Steve Carlton
    Game 4 Cole Hamels
    Game 5 Robin Roberts

    With those 3 we MIGHT still win with our crappy bullpen

    That's wrong. In 1984 the Padres beat the Cubs in the NLCS (at the time best-of-five; would change to best-of-seven the next year) after being down 0-2.
