Dice-K Mania is coming to Philly.Daisuke Matsuzaka will face the Phillies in the spring-training finale Saturday at Citizens Bank Park, which would be interesting even if he didn't walk five batters over five no-hit innings yesterday against the Reds in Sarasota. Depending on who you ask, Dice-K throws anywhere from five to seven pitches, including the mythical "gyroball." He has a 2.04 ERA this spring, and the Sox are counting on major things from him.
For what it's worth, Phillies OF Karim Garcia believes Dice-K will be successful in the majors. Garcia faced Matsuzaka for the past two seasons in Japan.
