Philadelphia Phillies
Posted by Erik Seybold. The Phillies won their first game of the spring yesterday as they best the New York Yankees, 9-3. The offensive outburst in the sixth inning helped the Phillies push past the Yankees, who had beat them the first two previous matchups over the weekend. Today, the Phillies will not play the […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. After yesterday's 8-5 loss to the New York Yankees, the Phillies will make the 17 mile trip to George M. Steinbrenner Field to play the second of three consecutive games against the Yankees. Today, Roy Halladay (2011: 19-6, 2.35 ERA) will take the hill and make the start against the Yankees. […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson What you see here is Raul Ibanez ruining the Comcast broadcast. In a Yankees uniform. Jerk. On a serious note, it was awesome seeing Raul with New York. Good for him. Wednesday's game was essentially a pre-pre-season game. Still a win, but, today's the day that *meaningful* games begin. Let spring […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. The Flyin' Hawaiian has spoken and he has made it clear what he wants. Phillies' centerfielder Shane Victorino is asking for a five-year contract extension with the Phillies, and the Phillies only. The three-time Gold Glover's three-year, $22 million deal is up after this season and the 31 year-old Victorino wants another […]

Posted by Erik Seybold Yesterday afternoon, the Phillies stated that Ryan Howard would be making a trip to Baltimore to see a specialist for a "routine checkup" related to his left Achilles'. Although the Phillies said it wasn't a "setback", many of us wondered what was really going on. Well today it was cleared up a […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. Photo Courtesy of (@ryanlawrence21)This morning, Roy Halladay took the hill to throw some batting practice to his teammates. At the plate stood Placido Polanco, Shane Victorino, and John Mayberry. No word on how the three did, but I'm sure Halladay tallied higher. Cliff Lee is back on the hill after suffering […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. This Wednesday night, the Phillies will host the Florida State Seminoles in their annual pre-Grapefruit League exhibition match up. The Phillies will send out righthander Austin Hyatt to start the game. The 25 year-old Hyatt posted an excellent season for double-A Reading in 2011. He went 12-6 with a 3.85 ERA in […]
