Fan Impersonates Phillies Player At All Star Fan Fest

Found July 14, 2008 on Hot Stove Philly: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: JC Romero
TEAMS: Philadelphia Phillies

Sportingnews.com writer Chris Mottram noticed Monday that one Phillies player signing autographs was not one that he recognized. Upon closer examination, it turns out that #16, C. Yeager, is not actually a member of the Philadelphia Phillies. This was especially evident since #16 is pitcher J.C. Romero. Yeager signed autographs for about 30 minutes before security escorted him off, seemingly without anyone noticing. Yeager was dressed in a full Phillies uniform, with arm bands and shades to help hide his true identity. Check it out for yourself.

Chase Utley: Boo me, Boo you

Via Sports Crackle Pop  |  July 15, 2008
Chase Utley doesn't like to be jeered. He told the New York fans (probably Mets) what to do after he heard the boo birds during his introduction to the home run derby. ESPN caught many of the profanities last night, but it didn't catch this one.

Chase Utley: NY F-You for booing me

Chase Utley is introduced at the MLB Home Run Derby, gets booed by New Yorkers and lets an F-Bomb fly.

MLB: Chase Utley Loves The Big Apple

Via Sheridan  |  July 15, 2008
I kind of like Chase Utley's attitude. Why not give it back to the Yankee Stadium denizens who coughed up big bucks to watch the Major League Baseball's Home Run Derby? After Josh Hamilton put on his freak performance, MLB should have ended the contest. Justin Morneau won the contest - yeah, go buy the Brooklyn Bridge and convince me Josh Hamilton wasn't last night'...

Phillies making tangled mess of left-handed relief

Via Beerleaguer  |  July 14, 2008
Before we get started on our weeklong marathon of first-half reviews and second-half previews, a word about left-handed relief, and how the Phillies probably screwed up. Let's start in Reading with a look at the last-place Double-A team, a squad that was supposed to be overflowing with talent and make a run at an Eastern League title. Pitching has been central to their problems...

Myers Eyeing July 23rd Return

Via Hot Stove Philly  |  July 15, 2008
It seemed Brett Myers has finally found his groove; at least in the minor leagues. The twenty-seven-year-old has been had some impressive outings since his demotion on July 1st, going 1-2 with a 3.10 ERA between Triple & Double A. In his last start against the Akron Aeros, he allowed two runs in eight innings while taking the loss. More importantly, he established he found...

Chase Utley Disagrees With Your Opinion

Via Goes Down Looking  |  July 15, 2008
Being a Mets fan, hating everything about Philly comes as naturally as slipping "yo" or "down the shore" into every conversation. But Chase Utley earned my respect for at least one night with his priceless reaction to the Bronx cheer he received at the HR Derbyt:

Beerleaguer votes Burrell as first-half Phillies MVP

Via Beerleaguer  |  July 14, 2008
For clutch hitting, a consistent approach, an unreal April and solid months in between, Pat Burrell has been the Phillies most valuable player in 2008, even before yesterday's three-run dong. Sorry, Chase Utley. Pat the Bat is the man. If this is indeed his final season in red pinstripes, he's going out with a bang. He's on pace to set a career high in home runs, on-base...

How the Phillies will win the NL East

Via blogs.phillyburbs.com  |  July 16, 2008
With a couple more days until the first place Phils swing back into action, it's a good time to speculate on how the Fightins will win the NL East. Tomorrow I look into the crystal ball and prognosticate on how they'll lose the NL East crown. It's not pretty.

Sunday: Phils hope to carry division lead into break

Via Beerleaguer  |  July 13, 2008
Team aces Brandon Webb and Cole Hamels square off in the series finale between the Diamondbacks and Phillies, a day after Adam Eaton's embarrassing performance. Eaton (3-8) allowed eight runs on seven hits over 3 2-3 innings, the critical damage coming at the hands of opposing pitcher Randy Johnson. Johnson's two-out, RBI double opened the door to an eight-run inning. Eaton...

Philadelphia Phillies: In Case You Missed It, A.J. Burnett Was Dominant

Via Bleed Eagles Green  |  July 14, 2008
In case Phillies fans missed it, A.J. Burnett pitched yesterday for the Blue Jays and was lights-out. Burnett's line: 8.1 innings, 1 ER, 8 strikeouts, and 1 walk in a 4-1 victory over the New York Yankees. As Adam Eaton showed against Randy Johnson and Brett Myers showed against Akron, quality starting pitching is still an issue for the Phillies. Burnett could be the answer....

Phillies enter All-Star Break clinging to First Place

Via All Things Philly Sports  |  July 14, 2008
It took some late heroics, but the Phillies were able to hold on to their slim lead in the NL East heading into the All-Star break. With the Mets streaking, winning 9 straight, the Phillies have watched their NL East lead dwindle as the team played inconsistently. After a poor performance on Saturday that I had the unfortunate opportunity to see first hand, the Phillies needed...
