The Phillies Ace takes the mound, Cliff Lee and he is opposed by Bobby Parnell. Lee has been almost perfect on the mound for the Phillies since he was traded from Cleveland to Philadelphia. Its a great feeling to have when you know the starting pitcher is probably going seven innings and you always have a chance when he is on the rubber. Bobby Parnell is going for the Mets and in his last outting he was lit up by the Braves giving up nine earned runs.

How do you think Cliff Lee will fare today? The over under on innings pitched is 7 1/2. Do you ever get tired of watching the Mets lose?

This should be a good one. Lee will go 8. Thats my prediction!

Nice Win Boys. Way to take 3 of 4

Another Gem by Lee. 5-0 with an 0.68 ERA with the Phils. OUTSTANDING

Phils now up 7 Games over Marlins and Braves
