Tyler Cloyd Makes 2013 Debut As Phillies Look To Get Even With D-backs

The Phillies wasted yet another Cole Hamels gem of a game last night by failing to score any run support. Taking the 2-1 loss, their second one-run loss in a row, the Phillies fell to 16-20 on the year and Cole Hamels, who allowed two earned runs through six, fell to 1-5 on the year. […]

Cole Hamels Seeks Run Support As Phillies Take On Surging D-Backs

I was very impressed with the Phillies series in San Francisco these past three days. Taking the first two with runs that backed up great outings from their starting pitchers and even tying yesterday's game in the ninth showed me that the Phillies aren't giving up. Even if Roy Halladay won't be back until late-July, […]

Jonathan Pettibone, Phillies Eye Sweep In San Francisco Against Barry Zito, Giants

So far this series in San Francisco has gone just the way the Phillies have wanted it to. Collecting wins in the first two games behind great outings from Cliff Lee on Monday and Kyle Kendrick last night as well as run support, the Phillies have already sealed the series win. This afternoon they will […]

Kyle Kendrick Aims To Keep Rolling; Lincecum, Giants Stand In His Way

There's no doubt that if you stayed up for last night's entire game then you were either very tired this morning and woke up happy, or you were late to work but you don't care because your excuse is that the Phillies were on last night. These west coast games are very plausible excuses for […]

Phillies Begin West Coast Road Trip In San Francisco; Cliff Lee, Madison Bumgarner Get Nods

After ending their weekend series at home against the Marlins with a 2-2 split and some bad news about Roy Halladay, the Phillies hit the road for a six-game road trip on the West Coast. The Phillies will visit the San Francisco Giants starting tonight to open a three-game set and will then travel to […]

Roy Halladay Placed On 15-Day DL; Joe Savery Recalled To Take Place On Roster

We all knew it was coming. Roy Halladay has landed on the 15-day DL with imflammation in his right shoulder. In response to this move, the Phillies have recalled RHP Joe Savery to take the spot on the roster. Halladay has struggled immensely in his last two starts, allowing a total of 17 runs in […]

Doc Shelled In Series Finale With Marlins, To Have Tests On Shoulder; DL Likely

I'll be short, sweet and to the point about today's game. ROY HALLADAY AND THE PHILLIES GOT KILLED. Roy Halladay got creamed for the second straight start and the Phillies were unable to mount anything to match the Marlins' 14 runs scored, 9 of which were against Halladay in less than three innings. Kevin Slowey, […]

Roy Halladay Seeks Redemption, Series Win In Sunday Finale With Kevin Slowey, Marlins

(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies went back to the pathetic bunch of tee-ball-skilled hitters last night (no offense to those of you who are parents of a tee-baller). Really? One hit against the Miami Marlins? C'mon, guys what happened to the can of whoop a** you put on them in the first two games? Cole […]

Phillies Look To Give Pettibone Another Win Against Marlins In Game Two

Last night was an imrovement from the series from Hell in Cleveland. Kyle Kendrick was yet again solid in a seven-inning bout against the Marlins. KK registered his second win of the year last night as he allowed two earned on seven hits while striking out five. Bringing his ERA down to 2.42, Kendrick maintains […]

Kyle Kendrick Looks To Spur Phillies Back At Home In Series Opener Against Miami

I'll be honest, the Phillies suck right now. Even after they washed away the Mets this past weekend, they went back to their old ways of failure to hit with runners on and simply score. The Indians scored a total of 20 runs between Tuesday and Wednesday, completely obliterating the Phillies in both games. Roy […]
