Bryce Harper
In the top of the fourth inning of today's Nationals-Marlins series finale in Miami, the fourth inning was disrupted by an verbal altercation between Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen and Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper. As Bryce Harper came to the plate, the 19-year old Harper made a gesture with his bat to veteran manager Ozzie Guillen, […]
The 83rd annual All-Star Game brought about quite an impressive array of the league's best starting pitchers and power hitters. Our Philadelphia Phillies sent out three of their top guys to Kansas City: Catcher Carlos Ruiz, starting pitcher Cole Hamels, and closer Jonathan Papelbon. All of these men took the field (or mound) tonight against […]
Cole Hamels takes the mound against Edwin Jackson tonight as the last-place Phillies take on the first-place Nationals with a never-before used lineup. Yeah, Erik puts lineups at the end, but he's too busy flipping burgers and spitting in your McCafe shake to write one today. Check this out: Pierre, LF Polanco, 3B Pence, RF […]
Just another one of those games in which you'd rather throw your tv out of the window than have to watch Roy Halladay suffer another loss. Charlie Manuel posted his 80,000th lineup of the season… It wasn't one we'll be seeing in more games down the stretch. Hector Luna, tonight's first baseman, hit a ground […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani The Phillies are back on the losing road. Having lost three straight games, the Phillies will turn to Roy Halladay to break them out of this new skid. The Phillies finally won a game for Halladay after going 0-5 in five straight starts. Tonight they'll look to keep up the run support […]
The Phillies' winning streak snapped Saturday night and their new losing streak began yesterday when they lost 5-1 to Boston. That series is over and it's time to look forward. The Phillies will be home for the next three days before embarking on a seven-game road trip. Tonight, they open up their second series of […]
Bryce Harper's self-imposed bloody eye was not voice enough. Harper had to speak about the Phillies fans and what he would expect when he comes to Citizens Bank Park as the Phillies take on the Nationals starting tomorrow night at 7:05. Rich Hofmann of the Daily News had some quotes from Harper: “Hopefully, I get […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) It's been well over a month since we've heard any talk about Cole Hamels and his contract situation. The 28-year old is in his final year as a Phillie and as of now he's showing what he's worth. According to NBC's Howard Eskin, Cole Hamels' agent John Boggs has told the Phillies […]
Remember when Cole Hamels hit Bryce Harper? Harper made Hamels look really bad because he took the mature road and only showed him up by stealing home and making fans' jaws drop. Immaturity among the immature can only hide for so long, and Harper made himself look really bad. Last night after going 0-5 […]
We figured that a suspension was forthcoming and showed that the last two pitchers suspended for throwing at players were each suspended five games a piece. We formally learned that Cole Hamels got his own five-game suspension from MLB. We wondered if Hamels would be penalized more for admitting that he threw at Harper. […]
