Reading Upended, 9-5, by Philadelphia
The Philadelphia Cheesesteaks trumped the Reading Railbirds, 9-5, at William Penn Park. Philadelphia designated hitter Chris Hall was terrific. He was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. Doug Benson was the winner. He's now 1-0. The loser was 34-year old right-handed pitcher Adrián Jiménez. The Cheesesteaks, now 9-5, have been playing some good baseball.

Dave McDonald had a big 2-run double for the Cheesesteaks in the bottom of the second inning. With Philadelphia leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a fastball from Adrián Jiménez, who led the FR in ERA with 2.54 last year, and swatted a double to left-center. It was his 3rd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cheesesteaks ahead, 3-0.

"Enjoyed this one," McDonald told the Philadelphia Bulletin. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
