But Why Do We Have the Early Game?

HOLY CRAP. Did you see Cliff Lee's awesome no-walk, complete-game pitching yesterday? And he stole a base? How about outfield giant Jayson Werth's amazing throw to third? Oh, and did we mention the entire team racked up hits? What? No, you say? You were at work and had to make do with completely unsatisfying online box scores? Mph. Us, too. So why are our beloved Phils being forced to play their Division Championship games at the ungodly early hour of 2-freaking-30 in the afternoon?

  • Londonist got the big scoop of the week with what may be the first images of notorious street artist Banksy in action. They also got on a runaway train without an operator provoking a response from the transport authorities. Elsewhere, London's answer to Central Station is about to open for business, and Londonist got a sneak preview. Meanwhile, spooky goings-on beneath London Bridge, where a cache of skeletons provided an apt story for Hallowe'en.

    Business Person Special today down at Citizens Bank Park. And it’s a perfect day to, uh, catch that cold that’s been going around. Just wear sunblock so the boss can’t tell you were sitting out in the sun all day.

    Brett Myers gave Phillies fans a nice Easter gift: a big, fat, round egg in the runs column. He pitched a gem yesterday afternoon (7 2/3 innings, no runs, 7 hits, five strike outs and one walk) to close out the Colorado Rockies, and Arthur Rhodes and Tom Gordon wrapped up the shut out. Not that the Phillies did much better offensively than Colorado, winning the 1-0 game on a solo Ryan Howard home run. But, hey, a win's a win, so we'll take it.
