BoSox Visit Phillies




















The Boston Red Sox will visit Philadelphia for a three game series starting tonight, followed by another night game tommorow and the series finale Wednesday afternoon for a business man's special.

Boston comes in with the best record in the AL at 44-28. While the Phillies are atop of the NL East at 41-30. Some say tonight is a preview of the fall classic, also known as the World Series.

The Sox are hot, 7-3 in their last 10 games. While the Phillies have lost their last two games, but are 6-4 in their last 10.

Cole Hamels (6-4) will take the mound tonight planning to end the Phils current skid. Hamels will take on Boston's new star Bartolo Colon (4-1).

Colon has had success so far in his first five starts with the Red Sox. One would expect a low scoring game tonight with both starting pitcher's ERAs under 3.50.

The Phils will not see Josh Beckett or Big Papi, in this series.

Let's go Phillies. We need to win this series, to prove this team is serious.
