A Reading Phillies player heads into work one day this spring.The Phillies took care of business last night, sweeping the Nationals, who are a bad team. Kyle Kendrick got his 9th win, bolstered by an early 3-0 lead. In the 6th, as the Phillies were padding what was then a 5-2 score, I went up the dial to the Nationals coverage and was astounded to hear their bad and boring announcers nattering on about the Redskins. Must be tough doing Nats games every night but come on. Several players got plunked in this game, including Chase Utley and Nats 3rd baseman Ryan Zimmerman. Scores are being kept. It was Nats starter John Lannan who broke Utley's hand last year in his debut. On to St. Louis and sterner stuff.
