FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES
All-Star right fielder Hunter Pence was traded from the the Houston Astros to the Philadelphia Phillies, giving the Phillies a righthanded bat for the middle of their lineup.
Pence was replaced by Jason Michaels before the Brewers batted in the bottom of the fifth inning in Friday's game in Milwaukee. He received several handshakes and pats on the back from teammates and coaches when he reached the dugout.
The 28-year-old Pence entered Friday night's game with a .309 batting average, 11 homers and 62 RBIs.
The deal does not include either Domonic Brown or Vance Worley but is centered around highly-rated Single-A prospects pitcher Jarred Cosart and first baseman Jonathan Singleton. Two other minor league players are part of the package.
Pence is expected to join the Phillies for their game tonight against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Citizens Bank Park.
