Brutal, brutal, brutal. The season continues to go down south for Cliff Lee, who entered this game with zero wins and left with the same amount. It's not about the offense bailing him out, that hasn't been an issue as of late. This is now about Cliff Lee giving up way too many runs, which […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew The Phillies were unable to end their homestand on a good note as they failed to seal a series victory against the Pirates. They took the first two games by storm, but were outhit by the Pirates in the last two games on Wednesday and yesterday. The Phils are embarking on a […]
The Phillies were unable to win this series last night as they fell to the Pirates, 11-7. Although they won the first two games of the series, they are still looking for a series win. In this afternoon's matinée, Kyle Kendrick (2-7, 5.24 ERA) and A.J. Burnett (8-2, 3.24 ERA) will go head to head. […]
Chase Utley hadn't played a game for the Philadelphia Phillies since October 7. Since Spring Training, fans have been left in the dark regarding Utley's health and whether the 33-year-old second baseman would ever play another inning of baseball for the Phillies, or any Major League team, ever again. It certainly didn't look good […]
There is no sweeter sight than seeing one of Philadelphia's most beloved athletes return to the field for the first time all season. Chase Utley returned tonight in what the fans knew might be a terrible game for Phillies pitching. Raul Valdes was tonight's spot starter in what would be one interesting ballgame. Your browser […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Frank Klose The Phillies are looking to take this four-game set tonight as they look to win their third straight game. The Phils' offense has been heating up during the end of this homestand, especially behind the bats of Jimmy Rollins and Carlos Ruiz. Tonight's starter for the Phillies will be Raul Valdes. […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Frank Klose It's official: Chase Utley is back in a Phillies uniform. Chase was activated this afternoon after spending just one day in Lehigh Valley rehabbing with the Triple-AAA IronPigs. Michael Martinez was sent down to the 'Pigs, making room for Chase on the 25-man roster. No word yet if Chase will be in […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Frank Klose In what should be his final rehab stint before returning to the Phillies, Chase Utley played a game at second base tonight for the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, the Phillies' Triple-AAA affiliate. Utley, who of course walked up to the plate with "Kashmir" blasting arround him, had a great night at the plate. […]
The Phils looked strong last night. Jimmy Rollins is smoking hot and Carlos Ruiz is still Carlos Ruizing it. By the way, you should really vote for Chooch for the All-Star Game. Seriously do it. Anyway, the Phils took game one of four by a score of 8-3 last night. Joe Blanton was solid while […]
On the way into Citizens Bank Park tonight, I predicted the Pirates would beat the Phillies 10-4. I'm at that point with this team. They entered the game at 34-40, so why would you believe they would beat a team that's played reasonably well this year? Well, for one night, they played like the Phillies […]
