Good pitching will beat good hitting any time, and vice versa.

Not a good month for the Florida teams.

Braden's was against the Rays
Halladay's was against the Marlins

Matt: Yogi Berra said "I never said most of the things I said." The "good pitching will beat good hitting" quote is attributed to Bob Veale.

To tie this in to our realm here.....

According to Baseball Tonight, this is the first year since 1880 that two perfect games have been pitched!!

That year, Lee Richmond and John Ward pitched perfect games within 5 days of each other (June 12th and 17th). Those were also the first two perfect games in major league history, and the only ones pitched in the 19th Century.

As a Jays fan, i was sad to see Doc go to the Phillies, but congrats to him, he showed why he is without a doubt the best picture in the league! Glad i bought a bunch of his Rc's about 6 or 7 years ago.

I edited the title to update this thread. Two perfect games in one season. That hasn't happened since 1880:

Lee Richmond June 12, 1880
John Ward June 17, 1880

I just saw that Steve D. beat me to this.

Imagine if the Phillies would have bucked up and kept Cliff Lee for this year.
