Yes, this was the game to watch yesterday and the game of the day today, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be the game to watch tomorrow as well.  In fact, due to tonight’s result, you won’t want to miss this game.  The game is big for both teams: if the Phillies (54-46) win, they’ll put the Mets (53-47) two games behind them, but if the Mets win they’re both even atop the NL East again.  A Phillies win combined with a Marlins win would put the Mets in third place.

This growing rivalry will have tempers flying, hits aplenty, and lots of homeruns tomorrow.  Brett Myers makes his return to the majors after being sent down to AAA after going 3-9 with a 5.84 ERA in the first half of the season.  He will be going against John Maine.  The reason we will see lots of hits and homers is simple: Both starters have given up a combined 35 homeruns this year (24 by Myers, 11 by Maine), and Myers has a BAA of .282.  Be ready to watch this game at 7:10 PM Eastern.
