Another b&w photo, this one from a pregame ceremony on a long-forgotten day at the ballpark.What I learned from Roy Halladay's press conference at Citizens Bank Park yesterday: He's now got a change-up to go with all of his other pitches and that his season goals sound disarmingly modest (stay in each game for as long as possible and limit walks). About any surprises he found on joining the Phillies: Everyone on the team wants to win, all 25 guys. That's all that everyone talks about. That's something, said Halladay, that was a pleasant surprise.
The last tied into a Sandy Koufax quotation about baseball: "There is among us a far closer relationship than the purely social one of a fraternal organization because we're bound together by a common goal. To win. Nothing else matters, and nothing else will do."
