~STORY OF THE WEEK~
HALLADAY PERFECT IN MIAMI

Roy Halladay pitched a perfect game in the Philadelphia Phillies 1-0 win over the Florida Marlins on Saturday night. The Phillies’ Ace did not allow a hit nor a walk in nine innings pitched to post the 20th perfect game in major league history. Wilson Valdez scored the run for the Phillies off of a Cameron Maybin fielding error. It was the second perfect game in the MLB this month alone, Dallas Braden doing it for Oakland against Tampa Bay back on May 9th. It’s the first time in the modern era that there were a pair of flawless games in the same season. Halladay was acquired by Philadelphia in the offseason in a blockbuster trade that sent Cliff Lee to the Seattle Mariners, and prospects; Travis D'Arnaud, Kyle Drabek, and Michael Taylor to the Toronto Blue Jays. Shortly after the trade, Halladay agreed to three-year $60 million extension with Philadelphia. In 77 innings pitched this season, Halladay is 6-3 with a 2.22 ERA and 1.10 WHIP. In other news, the Suns fell to the Lakers in a homecourt Game 6, giving LA the Western Conference title and a chance to become champions of the year 2010 in the NBA finals beginning this week against the Boston Celtics.
