| Former Phillie Michael Bourn is a pain in the Phillies side today with three stolen bases, the biggest being a steal of second in the Astros 10th inning. That put him in easy position to score on a triple for Hunter Pence off of Antonio Bastardo (or The Bastard as I call him), and the Phillies get knocked from the unbeaten ranks with their first loss of the season. With the first series for each team complete, that leaves five teams still unbeaten, and obviously five winless. Running 3-0 are both Sox, Red and White, in the AL and the Marlins and Braves in the NL. At 0-3 are the opponents of those four teams the Rangers, Indians, Mets and Nationals. Arizona is 2-0 and Colorado at 0-2 with their scheduled game today postponed due to snow. Obviously, the game wasn't in Phoenix. :) A little tidbit about that postponed Arizona/Colorado game. The day before, the teams played in abnormally warm 84 degree weather. The morning was almost 70, but by game time it dropped down into the 30s with snow falling. |
