The story goes: Roy Halladay went to the Amazon to go fishing, and all he came home with was a lousy saved-a-dude-from-an-anacaonda story. Talk about lame, right? Wrong! More like, are you kidding me?!

A bit ago, Twitter exploded with news from The New York Times‘ Tyler Kepner that Phillies ace Roy Halladay, in his pre-playoffs press conference, said something that seemed so good, it made us long for audio and/or visual evidence so we could hear it for ourselves. Check out the video after the jump to do just that.

It’s Marine Week in St. Louis, a celebration that gave one Marine just enough reason to make everybody really, really uncomfortable.

There was no more stunning storyline over baseball’s offseason than Cliff Lee’s decision to join the Philadelphia Phillies. He certainly got Sports Illustrated’s attention.

Spring training games generally don’t mean much by themselves, but today’s contest between the Phillies and Red Sox had the Phillies’ full attention for both good and bad reasons.

Hey, remember Roy Halladay’s no-hitter last night? That was awesome, no? Well, one person wasn’t quite so enamored with Halladay’s achievement, and – surprise, surprise – it’s a member of the team he no-hit.

Roy Halladay has thrown a no-hitter against the Cincinnati Reds in game 1 of their NLDS playoff series. It’s Halladay’s second no-hitter of the 2010 season, and the sixth no-hitter of the 2010 season.

With Saturday’s MLB trade deadline coming fast and furious, and sources are saying that Roy Oswalt may be headed to the defending NL champions, Philadelphia Phillies.

This perfect game stuff is getting ridiculous. Philadelphia Phillies ace Roy Halladay just completed the 20th in baseball history – and second this month – after the Oakland Athletics’ Dallas Braden did the same against the Tampa Bay Rays on May 9.
