Going into the most important 3 1/2 innings in Philadelphia history, as we wonder whether it's wiser to start Durbin, Romero or Madson, it's good to know that, even if the baseball gods may not be on the Phillies side, the rock and roll gods are.

The Punk Baseball Stars site also has an Iggy Pop card depicting the man born James Osterberg as a member of the Fightin' Phils, along with Patti Smith as a New York Poet, Bob Dylan as a Cleveland Indian and Jim Morrison as that noted slugger Moe "Joe" Risin.
