While it's incomplete to judge a pitcher based on his performances against one team, here's what we do know about tonight's two pitchers: they own their rival team.

Adam Eaton is undefeated against the Mets; John Maine has never lost to the Phillies.

Something has got to give, right?

Eaton, who got a no decision after allowing three runs in 7 2/3 innings in his first start of the season against the Reds Saturday, is 5-0 with a 2.68 in his career vs. New York (and 4-0 with a 2.81 ERA at Shea Stadium).

Although he was 3-5 with a 7.01 ERA after June last summer, Eaton pitched his best game during that span against the Mets, when he allowed five hits and two runs in 5 2/3 innings of a 4-2 win on August 28.

Meanwhile, Maine is 4-0 with a 2.13 ERA in six starts vs. Philadelphia.

So the math says this game will be decided late, after both starters have left and somebody else can be tagged with the loss, right?

We'll find out in a few hours...

No word on whether Jimmy Rollins is returning to the lineup tonight.

Shane Victorino, Pat Burrell and Geoff Jenkins were among those on the field for some extra batting practice in the last hour. No sign of Rollins.

When the lineups are posted, I'll try to update on here ASAP.

The Phillies really missed Rollins last night...

In the Archive Files, Rollins' replacement at shortstop made two of the team's three errors in the Phillies first loss to the Mets since June 30 of last year.

In the notebook, Rollins' streak ends, Madson is ailing and more.
