Phillies off to a good start

Last week was the first week of baseball season, and the Phillies have gotten off to a good start, winning 4 of their first 5 games. The opener was a day game down in DC against the Nationals, so I missed that one. Roy Halladay started and pitched well, getting the win. The Phils dropped the last game of that series, but now have one two in a row against hapless Astros, who remain winless. I listened to last night's game on the radio and was not too impressed with Houston. They gave up some runs early, then inexplicably scored five of their own in the 3rd. But they couldn't hold the lead, and the Phillies stormed back to win by a final score of 9-6. The series concludes with a game this afternoon; Halladay will take the mound against Roy Oswalt.
