The Phillies Took on Red Sox Pitcher Josh Beckett – this past Sunday. He might have been surprised by the breadth of their victory. This is because he’s been called a Lousy Teammate and Old Nicknames Die Hard.
Because Beckett makes his opinions known all over the place, with accompanying expressions and gestures, wandering up & down the dugout. And he’s been a good pitcher, it’s not that, it’s that he’s so free with his opinions. He’s certainly beaten the Phillies in the past, beginning when he was a Marlin...
In the 7th inning Jimmy Rollins ended his drought with a lovely line drive lead off home run. The Phillies scored 6 runs in this inning and ended Boston’s 5-game winning streak; this probably made Beckett peckish. The Lord knows he looks puckish for starters. The Phillies won 11-6 and that was very satisfying; as it was to see the attentive way Beckett was watching from the Red Sox dugout after he was taken out in the 7th.
