I was at the game















That Byung-Hyun Kim did it to the Phillies (8th inning). Tomas Perez got him in the ninth, though, but Phils lost in extras.

Matt Gelb wrote:Freddy Galvis, playing in his first organized game since June 6, went 4 for 5 with a home run in the Venezuelan League opener for Aguilas del Zulia. He played shortstop.

Meanwhile, Darin Ruf did not play left field in his debut. He was 1 for 4 with a double batting cleanup as designated hitter for Tiburones de La Guaira.

Tyson Gillies, Cesar Hernandez and Justin Friend are also playing in Venezuela.

Phillies join the trend with a second hitting coach. Announce today that Wally Joyner will assist Steve Henderson.

I knew he was bad but just not how bad


i wonder who was 1-9


I didn't see this answered so

10. 2012 Ty Wigginton -1.7
9. 1976 Bobby Tolan -1.8
8. 1969 Cookie Rojas -1.9
7. 1970 Denny Doyle -2.1
6. 1994 Kim Batiste -2.1 lol
5. 1969 Ron Stone -2.3
4. 1983 Pete Rose -2.3 :(
3. 2004 Marlon Byrd -2.3
2. 2011 Raul Ibanez -2.3 heh
1. 1997 Rico Brogna -2.7

that being said B-R rejiggered their WAR this year and it's kind of stupid now. There's sort of a weird double positional adjustment going on.
