Roy: Pitching in Philly is easier

Stay tuned later this afternoon as we post a Q&A with Crashburn Alley in which we talk about the Phillies, Astros, Ed Wade, and the upcoming four game series. In the meantime, we read that Roy compares his experience in Philly this season to the Astros in 2004 and 2005, and that it's easier to pitch in Philadelphia:

"It feels easier. I don't know if it's just the surroundings or [being] back into a pennant race. Any time you have the adrenaline going and the team is playing well behind you, it just adds that much more when you are pitching."
