SOXANDPHILSVILLLE, N.J. -- SoxandPhils, the leading blog dedicated to the 2008 and 2007 World Champion Phillies and Red Sox, proudly announces that it has extended the sponsorship of Ken Ryan's Baseball-Reference page for another year.
"Negotiations were tough but fair, and we're thrilled to bring back Ken Ryan for another year," SoxandPhils co-owner and lead writer Greg said. "There is no other player who better captures the spirit of SoxandPhils - at least none other whose page we can afford."
Ryan has been a SoxandPhils favorite since he told Phillies Magazine that his favorite teams are the Red Sox and Phillies - the only teams he played for in his eight-year major league career. He compiled a record of 14-16 and 30 saves with a 3.91 ERA in 285.2 innings from 1992 to 1999.
He was traded from the Red Sox to the Phillies on Jan. 29, 1996, with Glenn Murray and Lee Tinsely for Larry Wimberly, Rick Holyfield and Heathcliff Slocumb, the only other officially sponsored SoxandPhil.
Ryan joined the SoxandPhils family last year as a Christmas gift to Greg from Christine, SoxandPhils co-owner and head of editing and marketing.
"I knew Greg would get a kick out of it, but I didn't think he would have gone this nuts with it," she said.
