After a complete blow out win over the Cubs yesterday afternoon, the Phillies finally showed some life. Although it may be about 20 games too late, the Phillies played some good ball yesterday. Hopefully it will kick start something out of them. Tonight the Phillies will open up a three-game weekend series against the Washington […]
As rumors spread and deals become on the verge of completing, there is still a game to play. The Phillies, who have lost eight straight games, will open up a three-game series with the San Francisco Giants. With talk of Cliff Lee and Michael Young being close to having tickets out of Philly become more […]
The Phillies are coming off of a must-win series victory over the Atlanta Braves this weekend. Despite getting whooped on Saturday, 13-4, the Phillies were able to rout their NL East rivals 7-3 yesterday. Jonathan Pettibone was solid through 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball en route to his fifth win of the year. With […]
The Phillies are lucky for Kevin Frandsen. Seriously. While we writers were at the Reading Phillies game last night, our phones blew up with ESPN score updates alerting us that the Phillies had blown a 7-1 lead by letting the Mets tie it 7-7. Astonished, we all believed that the Mets would take the lead […]
Yesterday afternoon the Phils fell 5-2 to the Rockies and lost their second straight game. Jonathan Pettibone was shelled and the Phillies were unable to mount any offense against Jhoulys Chacin.

To sum things up, the Phillies got runners on base and they scored those runners. Crazy right? Along with compliments of an Erik Kratz three-run bomb, the Phillies pulled out a split […]
(Photo: Kevin Durso/Philliedelphia)After coming out of their six-game road trip 2-4, the Phillies (6-9) are back home tonight to host the St. Louis Cardinals (8-6) for a four-game set. With offense being an issue lately, there are other concerns that the Phillies must tend to – including John Lannan. Lannan started last night's game against […]
With John Lannan and Ricky Nolasco on the hill making the start, it was sure that either tonight would be a slugfest, or tonight would be a pitcher's duel. Tonight's series opener was indeed a pitcher's duel through out most of the game. Ben Revere led off the game with a single, but was stranded on […]
After a long Thursday break day, the Phillies are ready to get back to playing some baseball. The Phils are coming off of their first series win of 2013 after taking two of three from the New York Mets at home. The Phils routed the Mets 7-3 on Wednesday behind Kyle Kendrick and some big […]
Yesterday was just, ugh, I can't even talk about how discouraging and painful yesterday's ball game was. I don't even want to think about it. However, to give today's preview, you're gonna need some insight on yesterday's 13-4 loss. The Phils looked promising early on, amounting a 4-0 lead, but when Kyle Kendrick got into […]
