Jimmy Rollins
(Photo: Todd Zolecki/2012) It's been nearly five whole months since we've heard any news about the Good Doctor. No heroic tales from the Amazon, nor any updates on his health. Today, however, there is some good news about the Phillies ace. According to CSN's Jim Salisbury, Roy Halladay will throw from a mound (weather permitting) […]
While the season itself ended up tumultuous at times for Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins, he has had a number of personal accomplishments to show for it. Earlier in the season Rollins beat out Larry Bowa to top the games played at shortstop list in Phillies history. Then, Rollins picked up his 2000th career hit. […]
Cole Hamels this afternoon continued and ended his spectacular season. In Cole's final start, he was looking to shut down the Marlins and give the Phillies the series win, which would put them over .500 again. In what has been Cole's most impressive season in the major leagues, he didn't fail to impress in this […]
The Phillies and Marlins aren't going anywhere after this series. For the Marlins, that's been obvious since August. For the Phillies, that was settled last night after their 2-1 loss to Miami last night which knocked them out of the playoff race. Their chances are over, this is pointless baseball from here on out. To […]
I really thought they had a shot. The way the Phillies were playing in the beginning of this month made us all think that they could pull it off and enter the playoffs through the second Wild Card spot. That thought was put to rest last night as the Marlins beat the Phils, 2-1 via […]
The Phillies were looking to shake off last night's loss to the Braves with Cliff Lee on the mound who has been looking as dominant as ever lately. All Cliff Lee would need is a bit of offense to back him up. The Braves would score first this afternoon in the top of the second. […]
Well, this was one hell of a ballgame. After last night's ninth inning victory over the Mets, tonight's game (a makeup of Tuesday night's washout) which was started by Tyler Cloyd, was entertaining from the get-go. In the top of the first inning, the Phillies scored eight runs. Yes, eight. Here's how it all went […]
Miguel Cabrera is having one of the finest offensive seasons in recent Major League history, and is chasing an offensive Triple Crown, which means leading the league in batting average, home runs, and RBI, a feat not accomplished since Carl Yastremski in 1967 and only 15 times in Major League Baseball history. Would it be […]
Cole Hamels continued his red-hot season tonight at Citi Field, recording double-digit strikeouts in an outstanding effort which he would later receive the no-decision for. The offense showed up a little late tonight, long after Mets' starter Matt Harvey left the ballgame. Jimmy Rollins started off this ballgame against Matt Harvey doing what he does […]
Coming off of a 1-3 series loss against the Houston Astros, the worst team in baseball, the Phillies enter New York with the intent of getting back the giddy-up they had in the beginning of September. After being completely eliminated from contention of the NL Eastern Division title yesterday, the Phillies will enter the final […]
