So Steve Phillips has done two games in the booth for ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball, and I think he deserves a big round of applause from baseball fans everywhere. It's not easy to make Joe Morgan sound smart and Phillips has been doing it with ease since joining him and Jon Miller. Congratulations, Steve.Of course, when not making Morgan look good, it seems that Phillips has spent the rest of his time backpedaling. You may remember that back in March Phillips said Cubs manager Lou Piniella did a bad job of handling Kosuke Fukudome last season, and that Piniella took exception to Phillips' comments. Well, like any good analyst would do, Phillips apologized to Piniella for having an opinion on Sunday before the Cubs took on the Brewers in Milwaukee.
