Geez, had this be in RMFY (AKA MFYII) the place would have fucking erupted on those back-to-back singles. Is this the Bronx, or is this Turner Field?

Nice to be able to appreciate and enjoy an Utley 2 homer game!

Well, you are no Val big guy!

Actually they are now going to be playing at Hofstra instead. The SF team also moved from AT&T Park, so its possible this is a one and done league.

I know, its like an AL game broke out.

Well, I'll be at Citi Field on Sunday. Hey, maybe there won't be a huge line at the Shake Shack!

What was thought to be a pivotal series is now rendered completely and utterly meaningless. Just about says it all doesn�t it? Anyway, Mets� division tragic number stands at 7 (6 for the Wild Card), so a sweepby the Phillies would put the Mets out of their division misery. The Phillies Divisional magic number stands at 19 over the Marlins and 16 over the Braves. In any event, who are the soon-to-be threepeating NL East Champion Phillies? Well, not much has changed lineup wise since August; Howard at first, Utley at second, Rollins at short, Feliz at third, Ibanez, Victorino and Werth in the outfield, and Ruiz behind the plate. Ibanez had cooled from his torrid spring, but is still hitting .280, 30 homers and 83 RBI, Ryan Howard is the only Phillie with 100 plus RBI so far this season with Utley, and Werth behind him with 85 and 84 respectively. Pitching this weekend should be Cole Hamels (8-9 4.32) Friday night against Nelson Figueroa JA Happ (10-4 2.77) Saturday, 4:05 FOX game against Mike Pelfrey Sunday, both to be announced against Redding and Maine. Pitching wise, Cliff Lee has given the Phils quite a boost, to the tune of a 6-2 record and 3.11 ERA. While Happ and Jamie Moyer are the only 10 or more game winners, though Joe Blanton does have 9 going into Thursday night�s game against the Nationals. Also recently it seems the Phillies have been doing �Closer by Committee� as Brad Lidge, despite 28 saves, has an ERA of 7.11 with 7 losses. Ryan Madson has been stepping up, and has recorded 2 of his 6 saves this week. His ERA so far on the year is 3.11 Ex-Mets: Pedro Martinez, Chan Ho Park, Tyler Walker and Miguel Cairo.

And I'll say Eddie Collins for A's hits

Need three more of the 9 same record holders. Hmmmm...
