Rollins Knows Dontrelle From Way Back...

'The Phillies' shortstop and the Florida Marlins' ace pitcher grew up in the same neighborhood in Oakland, Calif. Their mothers are close friends. In some ways, they're like brothers.

'So, Rollins knows Willis gets chatty with his fielders, particularly when things aren't going the Marlins' way...

'"Dontrelle likes to go over and talk to his guys," Rollins said. "I looked at Uggla, and once he and Dontrelle started talking, I took off."' (DelawareOnline)
