The Phillies surely know how to pick a good day to win in dramatic fashion. How about yesterday? It was crazy. Honestly, I thought we'd done against Chapman – especially after Cliff Lee was picked off. That wasn't the case, however, as Erik Kratz homered to tie it and right after that Freddy Galvis shot […]
The Phillies were pounded yet again by the Indians in Wednesday's series finale. Cole Hamels was roughed up, allowing five runs on six hits through five innings of work. The Phillies were able to mount four runs, but still fell 10-4. The Phillies fell back to four games under .500 with that loss and with […]
No….we're not kidding. According to Ken Rosenthal, the Phillies and Carlos Zambrano have come to agreements on a minor-league deal. Zambrano, a true character on the field and off, last pitched in the Major Leagues with the Miami Marlins last season where he went 7-10 with a 4.49 ERA. Prior to his stint in Miami, Zambrano […]
The Phillies were very impressive in last night's 6-2 win over the Indians. Jonathan Pettibone went 6 2/3 innings, his longest outing yet. Allowing two runs on four hits while striking out three, Pettibone was also backed up by his offense – something that needs to show this afternoon for Cole Hamels (1-5, 4.18 ERA). […]
The last time the Phillies and Indians played against each other it was a complete disaster for the Fightins. During a two-game series at Cleveland back on April 30 – May 1, the Phillies were outscored by the Indians 20-2. Both Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee were worked over by the Tribe, who had been […]
After a three-game losing streak, the Phillies finally collected a win behind the arm of Cliff Lee last night. Clifton went seven shutout innings, allowing six hits, two walks while he struck out three to earn his fourth win of the year. The Phillies were able to mount three runs on the D-backs last night […]
The Phillies wasted yet another Cole Hamels gem of a game last night by failing to score any run support. Taking the 2-1 loss, their second one-run loss in a row, the Phillies fell to 16-20 on the year and Cole Hamels, who allowed two earned runs through six, fell to 1-5 on the year. […]
I was very impressed with the Phillies series in San Francisco these past three days. Taking the first two with runs that backed up great outings from their starting pitchers and even tying yesterday's game in the ninth showed me that the Phillies aren't giving up. Even if Roy Halladay won't be back until late-July, […]
So far this series in San Francisco has gone just the way the Phillies have wanted it to. Collecting wins in the first two games behind great outings from Cliff Lee on Monday and Kyle Kendrick last night as well as run support, the Phillies have already sealed the series win. This afternoon they will […]
There's no doubt that if you stayed up for last night's entire game then you were either very tired this morning and woke up happy, or you were late to work but you don't care because your excuse is that the Phillies were on last night. These west coast games are very plausible excuses for […]
