Phillies Face the Evil John Lannan

Posted 7/31/2008 on The700Level.com - Philly Sports & Minutiae

The name John Lannan doesn't sit well with most Phillies fans . But Chase and company can get some vengeance tonight when they go for the sweep in DC. Utley has homered in both games so far this week. Kyle Kendrick throws for the Fightins and I'm expecting tonight to have the heaviest Philly presence of the three game set at Nationals Ball Park.

I suppose this means that Nomar's eating his Wheaties, what with his two RBIs; maybe that qualifies as a gift, but given the Nats, perhaps not. The Dodgers really didn't do much until the sixth, and busted through against starter John Lannan , the team's de facto ace in the absence of John Patterson , formerly the team's number one, yet released after injuries in spring training killed his ...
