With the season winding down and the play off push stronger than ever, the Phillies have the chance to play spoiler as they go to Washington for a three-game set. The Nationals, currently riding a six-game winning streak, are looking to make a push for a Wild Card spot this October. At 77-69 and 11 […]
Last night's game was so cool. After back and forth play – including a blown save by Jonathan Papelbon, the Phillies came back on top with a walkoff solo home run in the ninth inning. The Phillies, still 12 games under .500, will send out Cole Hamels (6-13, 3.50 ERA) to face the first place […]
The Phillies are coming off of a 1-2 series loss to the Nationals this past week.

Cliff Lee (11-6, 3.09 ERA) will take on the Braves as they will send out Mike Minor […]
The Phillies lost yesterday's ball game and allowed the Cubs to tie the series at one-a-piece. Cliff Lee allowed three runs (two earned) over five innings of work.

It was reported late last night that Phillies veteran righthander Roy Halladay would be making his first start in three months after missing time on the DL with an injured shoulder. Halladay has been activated and in response for the roster move, Tyler Cloyd has been optioned to Triple-A Lehigh. Cloyd pitched five scoreless innings […]
Another game, another walk off win. The Phillies have won three straight games after coming back late and winning in walkoff fashion. First with Michael Young on Wednesday, Domonic Brown Thursday and Chase Utley last night, the Phillies have certainly been exciting. Tonight they will look to build off of these past three games as […]
The Phillies have certainly been entertaining these past two nights. Taking three of four from the Rockies, the Phillies have won two straight games and have a 5-5 record in their last 10 games. As September moves right around the corner and it becomes apparent that the Phillies have nothing to lose, they may finally […]

Now – a few hours before the game – the story has shifted from Cliff Lee and Zack Greinke to another plot. This afternoon the Phillies decided to call […]
