The Phillies are playing some exciting baseball right now, no doubt about that. Winning the wild card isn't too out of the question, but the Phillies are making it look more and more likely with the way they've been hitting the ball. The Phils scored first tonight in the first inning. With the bases loaded, […]
If you were hoping for a game with lots of hitting and lots of excitement, you watched the right ballgame this evening. After taking game one of this doubleheader with a walk-off victory, the Phillies were looking for a clean sweep of the Rockies tonight in game two. The Phillies scored first this evening in […]
Cole Hamels against Johnny Cueto sounds like an awfully good pitching match-up. The two candidates for the Cy Young award battled in a pitcher's duel after a shaky and rainy first inning from Cole Hamels. Once Hamels found his groove, the Reds were in trouble. That first inning for Cole looked like a whole lot […]
In Vance's previous four starts, he had gone less than six innings and had allowed four or more earned runs. Vance would go six again, but it was a much better start than his last. While Bronson Arroyo was tossing a no-hitter through five innings, the Reds were backing him up with some offense. In […]
Doc didn't have his best stuff tonight, but the stuff he had was still dominant. The Reds jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the first. Jay Bruce doubled to bring home Zack Cozart, the first run, then Brandon Phillips scored on a groundout from former Phillie Scott Rolen. The Phils got on the […]
Vance Worley's inconsistent starts are becoming more and more painful to watch. After just 4 and 2/3, this became a bullpen game. But, the damage had already been done by the Brew Crew by that point. In what felt like the longest fourth inning in baseball history, the Phils scored first before the Brewers took […]
Cliff Lee came so close to that third win tonight. So close. Cliff Lee struck out the side in the bottom of the first inning. You know, a strikeout, another strikeout, two solo home runs, and another strikeout. The solo homers went to Ryan Braun and Aramis Ramirez, the Phillies killers from the previous Brewers-Phillies […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew Roy Halladay was great last night. The Good Doctor was on top of his game against the Cardinals. He allowed just one earned run, a second inning Carlos Beltran home run, over eight frames. Chase Utley put the Phils ontop in the eighth inning with a two-run shot to help secure Doc […]
The pesky Braves just can't lose, can they? Other than last night's gem of a game from Hamels, the Braves have dominated the Phillies all season. Tonight, they showed great patience at the plate and got Kyle Kendrick to exit the game early, just to tear up the Phils' bullpen. In the rubber match of […]
Cole Hamels was completely dominant last night as he shut out the Braves for his first complete game shut out since Game 3 of the 2010 NLDS. Hamels earned his 12th win of the year as he allowed just five hits while striking out six. Hamels evened up the series with the Braves at one-a-peice […]
