Here's one. The Phillies are four games out.

Which seemed unthinkable after their crummy start. But the Mets have slid gracefully back to the pack, and the Phils have turned their season around more or less. The NL East has a chance to become what the NL West already is - a three team struggle where the standings can change every day.

Nothing like that going on in the AL this year. Yet.

Two intriguing pitching matchups. At Yankee Stadium, the infield grass promises to get a severe workout as long as Webb and Wang are firing those sinkers.

And at Tampa Bay, Greg Maddux goes up against Scott Kazmir. They're both from Texas, and they're both six feet tall. Otherwise - not a lot in common.
