Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers reliever Devin Williams defeated Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm for the 2020 Rookie of the Year award.
The Phillies are above .500 for the first time since last season when they finished 81-80. With their win last night behind Tyler Cloyd, the Phillies also extended their winning streak to five games. Cloyd was solid, throwing 6 2/3 innings of scoreless ball. Although he walked five batters, he was able to keep them from […]
The Phillies (30-30) are finally at .500 for the first time since April when they were 6-6. Cole Hamels won his second game of the year, his first since April 28th, yesterday after going a month without a win. Hamels went 7 innings and allowed a run on four hits while striking out 11. A […]
So last night was a perfect opportunity for Cole Hamels to win a ball game…but he didn't. For the first time since April 7th he pitched with a lead, thanks to a Domonic Brown three-run shot (his first of two). It was not enough, however, as Hamels was tagged for six earned runs on a […]
Carlos Ruiz simply missed too much time. In a stunning revelation, according to CSN Bay Area, Melky Cabrera has asked that he be eliminated from contention for the National League batting title. Does this mean that all of a sudden Carlos Ruiz has a shot at the title? Unfortunately, no. The magic number of […]
Monday night proved successful for the Phillies as Cliff Lee and his team earned a solid 3-1 win against the Mets. The Phillies got an early lead and maintained it until the end. Hitting and pitching was on point as Lee struck out ten. He earned his sixth win of the year, while helping his […]
This season in general has been a heartbreaking one for the Phils, and yesterday was a perfect example of just how painful it has been. Lee pitched well, but gave up two solo homers to Phillie-killers Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez. Just when we thought the Phils were down on their luck, Kevin Frandsen pushed […]
I suppose it's always refreshing for a player to say he did not perform up to standards and apologize. Well, Monday night, Brewers closer Francisco Rodriguez apologized to Brewers fans for blowing Monday's game to the Phillies in the 9th inning. His grammar was, um, suspect: The Phillies won. However, I still think it's cool […]

Posted by Frank Klose I remember back in 2008 wrapping up the night courses I was teaching at Holy Family University. Class ended just after 9p.m., and there was one thing I did every time I was there: I raced to nearby Whitman Tavern to watch the end of the night's baseball games on their […]
