WHY NO BRANDON PHILLIPS? "I think he needs a day," Baker said. "He's played every day, every inning. I see him swinging at bad pitches and taking good ones. He's really upset with himself. Plus, he's 0-for-13 against Lilly. Day game after a night game. When you add all up, this is the day."

Phillips agrees.

"I'm trying to do too much. I was trying to do that one thing to pump the team up rather than let the game come to me. Dusty saw it and pulled me aside."

CRANK IT UP: Music was blaring in the visitors clubhouse, coming from Bronson Arroyo's iPod, which was hooked up to the stereo. "It's better than that morgue that's been in there," Baker said. "Bronson asked me. I said go ahead. That's a sign of leadership."
