The Philadelphia Phillies recalled right-handed flame-thrower Scott Mathieson from Triple-A. Mathieson, who is having a strong season as Lehigh Valley's closer and was named the top minor league pitcher of the month for May, was 2-2 with 12 saves, a 2.43 ERA, 32/12 K/BB ratio in 29 2-3 innings, holding opponents to a .194 average. Mathieson, originally called up in 2006, has endured three arm surgeries but has bounced back and is listed by Baseball America as one of the hardest throwers in baseball with his fastball touching 101.
