PHILADELPHIA - Jimmy Rollins was right after all. The Phillies, whom Rollins declared the "team to beat in the NL East" in January, will make their first postseason appearance in 14 years as the division champion. Philadelphia's MVP candidate saw to it by going 2-for-3 with a triple, an RBI and two runs scored in yesterday's 6-1 victory. |

| The historical context must be especially sweet in the City of Brotherly Love. In 1964, Gene Mauch's Phillies blew a 6-1/2-game lead with 12 games left to play. Now they are the beneficiaries of a similar collapse |

Feeling frustrated, humiliated and angry, Mets fans are in need of a psychologist's couch to get over a historic mental meltdown. After a year of being supremely confident in their team's World Series chances, the Amazin' faithful suddenly find themselves edged out of the playoffs. "It's a disaster," said Dr. Frederic Kass, a psychiatrist at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital, who was at Shea Stadium yesterday to witness the Mets' season-ending defeat. "I guess there's a degree of being stunned as opposed to chronic demoralization," Kass said. Kass said the worst thing Mets fans can do is allow the team's debacle to color their hopes for next season. "Once you've had a huge collapse, what's going to happen when the team does come back?" Kass said. "After you've gone through this, it could get in the back of your mind that it will happen again." Kass predicts that once the Mets begin making off-season trades, the sour taste will begin to fade. "By the time spring training opens, their hopes will be revived," said Kass, who recommends fans think of positive things like the team's young, talented roster and pitcher Pedro Martinez's comeback from injuries. Dr. Judy Kuriansky, a New York clinical psychologist and Columbia University professor, said a big mistake would be for fans to exaggerate the team's failure. "If their team's losing, they feel like a loser themselves and it can spin them into all kinds of emotional distress," said Kuriansky, author of "The Complete Idiot's Guide to a Healthy Relationship." "It's important to separate yourself from the team's losing, to not think that you've lost in your own life," she said. Pop psychologist Dr. Joyce Brothers said male Mets fans are likely to suffer a decrease in testosterone.  "A lot of what would have been some pretty wonderful sex went by the board," Brothers said. "I think it's very hard to give up a gift that you had put in your pocket already," Brothers added. "There's a certain amount of humiliation going on, too." She said it's crucial for fans not to do things that compound their troubles. "Don't go out and torch cars like they do in some cities," she said. |

But Red Sox fans have the 2004 WS to fall back on. |
