Spring Training
Posted by Frank Klose Having made his final Spring Training start, Roy Halladay is ready to get into his black BMW and head back north. In his 2011 Spring season, Halladay went 4-0 with a 0.42 E.R.A. He struck out 13 and walked six. That miniscule E.R.A refers to the one run that he gave […]

Posted by Danielle Wilson Photo courtesy of reclinergm.com In todays' Pirates-Phillies game at home, Domonic Brown finally achieved the impossible feat: He hit a single. That's the good news.
