Before fireworks exploded above the ballpark, the Phillies bats went boom. Greg Dobbs sparked the ninth-inning rally with a three-run homer. Cody Ransom sent the Phillies and their stay-to-the-end fans into a delirious frenzy with a two-run shot that brought them all the way back from a 7-1 deficit. And when Ryan Howard won it with a two-run homer in the 10th, even the Phillies were stunned.

Pierzynski's two homers led an 8-2 win over the Kansas City Royals -- Chicago's sixth straight victory and 23rd in 28 games.

Posted in Fantasy Baseball by DuckSnort 32 days ago (http://us.rd.yahoo.com)

Infante homered two pitches after Melky Cabrera hit a tiebreaking shot off Dickey with two outs in the seventh inning and made a smart play in the field, helping the Braves beat the New York Mets 4-2...

Maclane rushed into duty in debut
Posted in Fantasy Baseball by DuckSnort 32 days ago (http://feeds.cbssports.com)
Cardinals SP Evan Maclane was recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday and did not wait long before making his major-league debut. He arrived at the ballpark in the fifth inning and ended up pitching in the ninth. He gave up a walk-off home run the only batter he faced, but Maclane was glad to get his first outing out of the way. "It was good, because as soon as I got here, I didn't really have time to think," MacLane told MLB.com. "They were like, 'Ready, let's go." Maclane was with the team earlier in the year, but did not make an appearance in his three days with the team. "Any time you come up, it's special and intense," MacLane said. "Every game means so much." Major League Baseball - Sports - Baseball - Triple-A - Major League

Betemit hitting .365 through 52 at-bats
Posted in Fantasy Baseball by DuckSnort 32 days ago (http://ownersedge.fanball.com)
The News Wilson Betemit went 1-for-4 as the Royals slipped 8-2 against the White Sox. Our View Betemit is hitting .365 in 52 at-bats this season, but appears to be sliding back into normalcy with only six in his past 24. Still, he's only gone 0-fer twice in his past 12 games and could provide a decent fill-in option if you're hurting for corner infielders. Just don't wait long as his average is likely to even out soon.

Maholm allows three hits in seven innings
Posted in Fantasy Baseball by DuckSnort 32 days ago (http://ownersedge.fanball.com)
The News Paul Maholm allowed just two earned runs and only three hits through seven innings picking up a no-decision in another Pirates loss Friday. Our View Maholm got back on track after being cracked for seven earned against the Phillies in his last outing. The four Ks were his most in his past four outings, but unfortunately playing for Pittsburgh means he'll struggle to pick up many wins. His ERA is now 4.37 this season.

Reyes gets first RBI since returning
Posted in Fantasy Baseball by DuckSnort 32 days ago (http://ownersedge.fanball.com)
The News Jose Reyes went 1-for-3 with an RBI double as the Mets fell short against Atlanta 4-2. Our View Reyes was responsible for half of New York's runs on Friday and picked up his 15th double of the season. He was really hot before missing five outings (oblique), and although he's hasn't been lighting the world on fire in three games back, it was nice to see him drive in a run for the first time since June 29.
