Last night was a good example of how small ball can produce wins. The Phillies used the runners on base to score and it worked out. It would have been nicer if they had gotten a couple more runs, but a win is a win. Jonathan Pettibone debuted last night and he was solid, allowing […]
(Photo: Frank Klose/Philliedelphia) If you fell asleep before last night's eighth inning, I feel sorry for you because you missed a helluva comeback. 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 […]
Compared to Friday's game, last night's game was just absolutley pitiful. The Phillies managed just three hits, their first coming in the bottom of the fifth. Lance Lynn held the Phillies in check, yielding just one hit through seven innings. Cliff Lee was held accountable for last night's game as he allowed five […]
There's no doubt that last night's ball game was a tough-luck loss for the Phillies. Cliff Lee dazzled through six innings before allowing two runs in the seventh inning. With the Reds in control, the Phillies struck back with a Chase Utley pinch-hit two-run home run. With Lee off the hook for the loss, the […]
Photo: @TheHamels So these Bleacher Creature things are pretty cool. If you have no idea what I'm talking about – have you ever seen the little plush puppets of Ryan Howard, Roy Halladay, Chase Utley, and Cliff Lee? No? Well you're missing out because they're awesome. A couple years old, the Phillies have sold millions […]
The Phillies are coming off of their second-straight series win of the year after the Roy Halladay of old returned against the Marlins yesterday. The Good Doctor threw 8 strong innings, allowing an earned run on five hits while walking one and striking out two to notch his 200th career win. After a 2-1 series […]
The Phillies were on the short end of the stick last night. It was a tough-luck loss, but at least it wasn't a blowout loss. Cole Hamels allowed an earned run on three hits through six innings, four of which were no-hit innings. He didn't take the win, but he did improve drastically from his […]
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 […]
If you're not 21 and you're going to a Phillies game this season, don't drink…even in the parking lot. Yesterday afternoon, The Pennsylvania Bureau of Liquor Enforcement patrolled the parking lots and concourse outside of Citizens Bank Park on an underage drinking crack down. Investigators said several plainclothes and two uniformed officers patrolled the parking […]
