Funny story. Former Penn QB and third baseman Mark DeRosa was the person who informed Cliff Lee that he'd been traded to the Phillies.

"I actually called him," DeRosa said. "He hadn't heard the news yet. I said, 'It's coming across the ticker that you got traded to the Phillies.' And he was sitting in the clubhouse in Anaheim with Kerry Wood and said nothing had been told to him yet"
