Okay, here it is, the big league debut of Phillies lefthander Antonio Bastardo. Kind of a surprise, in light of the fact that he only has two starts at Triple-A, but his performance, and the fact that his turn in the rotation coincided with Brett Myers' vacated spot, led to Tony's debut. Welcome!
And it could hardly be a more daunting matchup for him: He'll be opposed by Cy Young Award winner and future Phillie Jake Peavy.
Discuss the game below. Bastardy jokes encouraged, but only on this occasion.
