Happy endeavors Roy Oswalt

Roy Oswalt is no longer an Astro. He's now a Phillie as he approves the trade to Philadelphia. I seen "Big O'" pitched twice in my trips to Houston catching an Astros game. Both games he was impressive and victorious. He's impressive pitcher that deserves better than the garbage Astros signed and put on the field currently right now. Going to miss "Big O" in Houston. Good luck in Philly!

Halladay and the Phillies are perfect

Phillies big trade to get pitcher Roy Halladay in the offseason already paying off with quality starts, wins, and ERA barely below 2. On Saturday history was made as Halladay pitched the 20th perfect game in league history against Florida Marlins in 1-0 victory with amazing 11 strikeouts. It was first time in 130 years two perfect games tossed in a season. It too happened in the same month. Halladay and Phillies continue to sizzle on the NL East. Will there be another no hitter/perfect game this season? Still got four months left to go in the season.

Idiot fan ruins Cole Hamels moment

After a Phillies fan deservingly got tasered for running on the field during play another fan did the same thing. Except it was top of the 9th with no outs and the Phillies winning 1-0 at the time with Cole Hamels on the mound trying to get his first win in three tries. After that idiot fan got dragged out Hamels concentration unraveled as he gave up two doubles on next two batters with one scoring tying the game up 1-1. Hamels was replaced by Brad Lidge who got the Phillies surprisingly out of a jam putting the game into extra innings. Thank goodness for Phillies catcher Carlos Ruiz hitting walk-off game-winning homerun at bottom at the 10th to end it with 2-1 Phillies win. Imagine if the Phillies lost after the idiot came on the field. To the idiot fan thank you stupid fuck for ruining Cole Hamels possible win along millions of fantasy baseball owners who needed that win from him.

Jayson Werth most likely decided the series

To me it was not Brad Lidge blowing a tie game was a possible series decider. It was a single Melky Cabrera hit at top of the 5th that sent Nick Swisher to second. What was not mention is Jayson Werth blunder which he tried to flip the ball to Chase Utley, but the ball end up dead in midair as the Phillies missed a potential inning ending double play. The next two batters singled driving in two runs giving the Yankees 4-2 lead at the time. If they made the double play the game would have still been 2-2 going into bottom of the 5th. I notice the media making Lidge out as the bad guy but they have NOT shown that Cabrera single on the highlights. I felt Werth blunder is not only a game decider, but a possible series decider.

The nation, say hello to Cliff Lee

In the sports media and viewing capital of world say hello to 2007 AL Cy Young winner and Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Cliff Lee.

Cliff Lee put on a World Series pitching performance to remember, and of places, at the new hitter friendly Yankees Stadium. He pitched a complete game striking out 10 batters and gave up 6 hits and a run taking the Phillies 6-1 game 1 win. The run was unearned at the bottom of the 9th. He stifled the heart of the Yankees lineup of Mark Teixeira, ARod, and Jorge Posada as they combined for 0-12 performance with 8 strikeouts. His complete game helped from potentially stretching and tiring out the team's bullpen unlike the Yankees who brought in 5 relievers in game 1.

After flirting with Roy Halladay trade Phillies pulled the trigger trading for the 2007 AL Cy Young winner which is the best move they made before the trade deadline. He became essential part of the rotation going 7-4 in his 12 starts with ERA of 3.39 and one of key core players of the team playoff run. In four starts in the playoffs he is 3-0 with 30 strikeouts with .54 ERA while giving up 4 runs, 2 unearned. If the series extends and likely will expect him to lead the charge on the mound as Phillies try to repeat as World Series champion.
