The move is the first non-chair related disabled list stint for Madson. The bullpen now looks like this: LHP Antonio BastardoRHP Michael Stutes Then it gets […]
Posted by Frank Klose Courtesy walkoffwalk.com Remember this incident last year? Well, it turns out that this fan, Patrick Boyle, was the lucky fan yesterday who caught not one, but two, according to NBC Philadelphia. Kelly Bayliss of NBCPhiladelphia did some fancy math to determine the liklihood: Based on an MLB.com report, approximately 30 to […]
Posted by Frank Klose Courtesy shanevictorino.com The Phillies' Shane Victorino will spend a full hour with Mike Missanelli on 97.5 the Fanatic today from 2:00 – 3:00 at the Aloft Hotel. It should make for a very interesting hour because Missanelli has often indicated that Shane Victorino is not his most favorite player. While he […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of Daylife.com When the Florida Marlins came to visit in mid-June, I noticed that John Buck's catchers helmet was decorated and painted to represent the Marlins, and I love it. As you can see, there's a huge Marlin on the side (he has it painted on both sides, so they […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of Daylife.com Thanks to our very own Christina Angelos, I get to write the recap today and was told to do so in the ninth inning, so I'll make this short and sweet.

Roy Halladay went for that feat on Thursday, but unfortunately the offense came too late in the game, after Roy was taken out. It felt like 2010 tonight, […]

Usually, I enjoy pitching duels in their entirety, but tonight, I just wasn't feeling it. The Vance Worley-Guillermo Moscoso matchup wasn't exactly considered a marquee […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson . Following last night's masterful outing from Cliff Lee, Roy Oswalt took the mound against Chris Carpenter tonight for the possible series sweep in St. Louis. Unfortunately, the Cardinals got to little Roy early on, starting with John Jay's solo homer to right field in the bottom of the first […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of AP Photo/ Jeff Roberson That man. Right up there. Clifton Phifer Lee. An ace with huge ups. That just about sums up his outing. The Phillies scored four runs behind Cliff to defeat Kyle Lohse and the Cardinals. Jimmy Rollins sent a changeup to the right field […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of AP Photo/ Jeff Roberson Following Monday's off day for the Phils, they started a three-game series in St. Louis, starting with Roy Halladay against Kyle McClellan. The Cardinals were quite obviously without Albert Pujols, and will be for the next 6-8 weeks. Whomp. Speaking of the number six, that's […]
