Interleague Play
The Phillies and White Sox played a total of 24 innings of baseball between yesterday afternoon and early this morning. On a Saturday that provided a twin bill, the Phils and Sox took both games into extras. Chicago took the first in 11, but the Phillies struck back later in game two and won in […]
The Phillies are coming off of a three-game sweep over the New York Mets this weekend, their first sweep of the year. With the offense surging, a day off yesterday certainely doesn't prove good timing, but as the Phillies enter tonight's ballgame at 12-14 they are looking to end the month of April on a […]
Well last night wasn't the start we were looking for. Cliff Lee was lit up for six earned and the Phils only produced two runs themselves. It wasn't a good game at all, and for Cliff Lee it hasn't been a good season at all. The Marlins now hold a 4-3 record against the Phillies […]
With last night's game being postponed, the Phillies will play a day-night double header on Sunday to finish the series with the Rays. Today, which was set to be game two, will be game one and Kyle Kendrick is on the hill for the Phils. Cliff Lee will start in game two of tomorrow's double […]
Ah, the Great White North. Free health care, funny accents, polar bears and maple syrup. The Phillies went through customs last night and tonight they will open up a three-game set with the Toronto Blue Jays. After winning the three-game series with the Twins, the Phillies are 31-34 and sit 9 games behind the Nationals […]
The Phillies looked really good tonight for the first time in a while. The bats were working and the arm of their starting pitcher, Joe Blanton, was good enough to defeat the Twins 6-1. The Phils struck first in the second inning when Ty Wigginton hit a solo home run, his seventh of the season. […]
Yes I said miracle. It's that bad right now that the Phillies need a miracle to show some signs that they are not cellar dwellers. The Phillies have dropped from 2 1/2 games out of first to 9 1/2 in just ten games. Not to mention they have lost 9 out of their last 10 […]
Although they are sitting dead last in the NL East, the Phillies are not the worst team in baseball. Their 29-33 record is better than six other Major League teams. For instance, the Minnesota Twins are 24-35, they sit 8 1/2 games back in the AL Central and most likely will stay there. Tonight the […]
The Phillies will look to erase the recent sweep by the Dodgers tonight and this weekend as they embark on an eight-game Interleague Play road trip. Having lost six straight games to end their depressing home stand, maybe a little Interleague Play for the Phils will be able to fix that – hopefully. Tonight, The […]
