The Phillies call up 30-year–old Joe Roa, winner of 20 straight games in the minor leagues. He won his last six decisions with Calgary in 2001 and was 14–0 at Wilkes–Barre this year. Roa was closing in on the IL record of 20 straight wins set by Jim Parnham of Baltimore, in 1923. The last 20–game winner in the IL was in 1950.
