bastardo back to philly

As expected, lefty Antonio Bastardo was recalled from Lehigh Valley to join the Philies for the series with the Dodgers. Bastardo, like some other minor league guys, has the talent. Will he finally make the most of his opportunity?

David Murphy, who has become one of the better beat writers covering the Phillies, has an interesting piece on NL contending teams down the stretch on his High Cheese blog for the Philadelphia Daily News. See it here: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/phillies/A_quick_look_at_the_stretch_run.html
