To the disgust of Baseball Tonight, the Phillies' shockingly not-poor start is rocking the baseball world!
That doesn't even mention their 14-3 record in one-run games, or that they lead all of baseball in wins against teams with over .500 records!
Jake Thompson's fastball is great!
The Reading prospect only struck out four hitters, but induced pathetic ground balls all afternoon to silence the Toledo Mudhens 5-0 in what was easily his best start of the season.
He's got the league's best ERA (1.53), using his breaking ball more effectively, and set a career-high with 12 strikeouts in his last start!
