Butterfingers in the field, awful aim from the mound end the Phils' mastery of the Mets
Of course the Phillies' streak over the Mets was bound to end sooner than later, but to lose thanks in large part to four errors in three innings and an absolutely horrid start (2.1 innings, 6 walks) by Kyle Kendrick is damn troubling. The Phils' inability to catch the ball in the early going -- they are dead last in the major leagues in number of errors committed -- is a dreadful trend. Philadelphia has too many flaws to give opponents extra outs. And it's not hard to imagine Kendrick back in the minors by summer. He's a textbook case of an unknown who took the league by surprise when nobody knew who he was, but is poised to fall to earth once hitters catch up.
Seriously, though: Of all the teams for the Phillies to make their bitch for a while, how sweet is it that they chose the Mets? S|C
