Posted by Frank Klose Courtesy bostonglobe.com When the Phillies faced the Red Sox this week, the series opener featured 38 year-old Mike Cameron starting in right field batting sixth.

Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of Daylife.com I can't put into words how truly masterful Cliff Lee pitches. Cliff had a no-hitter going into the sixth inning tonight before giving up a single to Marco Scutaro. Five scoreless innings for Cliff to tack onto his current career-high streak.

Posted by Frank Klose Cole Hamels must have been easy to read for the New York Mets' coaching staff, because in the early going, the Mets were running all over Hamels and Carlos Ruiz. Just 2 2/3 innings in, the Mets had stolen five bases. Two of those bases were stolen by Jose Reyes, and […]
Posted by Frank Klose Commonly heard at Citizens Bank Park and and Twitter many times this year: "I love Raul, but he is just too old to play anymore". Blah, blah blah. Well, let's compare some stats of a few players and see if we can put this into some perspective. 2011 Player Stats Through […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth Chase Utley makes his long-awaited return to the Phillies lineup tonight, as the Phillies face soft-tossing right-hander Bronson Arroyo and the Cincinnati Reds. Wilson Valdez, and his .551 OPS (.252 wOBA), has been relegated to the bench. Pete Orr, and his .578 OPS (.258 wOBA), has been exiled to the scenic […]
