The Phillies have finally ended their offseason-long search for a setup man, and after it took nearly as long as Inigo Montoya's search for the six-fingered man who killed his father, they have settled on a six-fingered man of their own: Antonio Alfonseca. The pitcher, a former closer with the Marlins and numerous other teams, was born with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot.
However, unlike the "Princess Bride"'s six-finger man, and unlike certain other recent Phillies relief pitchers, Alfonseca is not believed to have ever killed anyone.
