Phillies In First In NL East

Hey, how ’bout them Fightin’ Phils? It’s June 2 and they’re in first place in the NL East, albeit only a half-game up. The local nine slaughtered Florida on Friday night, lost on Saturday night but at least nobody on the Phils got hit in the groin and then rallied from a 5-1 deficit to beat the Marlins yesterday and reclaim first place.

And, Mike Lieberthal signed a one-day contract worth $4 to retire as a Phillie, plus the Reds’ Junior Griffey is in town for a four-game series with 599 homers. (Will a fan throw it back if he catches it?) Ahh, but after the jump, my favorite part of the weekend: Jimmy Rollins scores on an error after a pickoff throw attempt and Harry Kalas (and the viewing audience) is utterly confused as to what just happened.
