Posted by Frank Klose; co-author Tony Galante Courtesy nydailynews.com The Giants' General Manager Brian Sabean is furious. How dare Marlins' extra man Scott Cousins slide into home? A couple days ago, Sabean talked about a possible rule change to Andrew Baggarly to spare catchers from being hit on plays to the plate: [Sabean] said Giants […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of Justin K. Aller/Getty Images The Phillies hoped to avoid a sweep in Pittsburgh (I can't believe I just typed that) with Roy Halladay taking the bump against James McDonald this afternoon. The Pirates took an early lead in the first inning when Neil Walker homered to score Xavier Paul. […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Courtesy of Gene J. Puskar/AP Photo That face. Look at that face. Yeah, I also wish that it was Vance Worley's. After yesterday's extra-innings loss to the Bucs, the Phillies put Kyle Kendrick on the mound against Charlie Morton who "reinvented himself." Luckily for Kyle, the Phillies hopped on a 1-0 […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson The outcome that Phillies fans have been waiting a few days to hear about, who would be sent down to AAA Lehigh Valley when Shane Victorino returns? John Mayberry Jr. It was either Mayberry or Rule 5 Draft pick Michael Martinez who are both young, versatile infielders and outfielders. Mayberry went […]

Posted by Danielle Wilson On this sweltering Wednesday afternoon, the Phillies completed a three-game series in Washington, which was the rubber match of the series following yesterday's 10-2 loss. Roy Oswalt took the bump today against John Lannan, who is notoriously known for hitting just about every batter in the Phils' lineup. He's 0-10 against […]
Posted by Christina Angelos This post is pure opinion, but my take on how much there has been inconsistency with the strike zone. I have a couple photos from tonight's game and one from another Cliff Lee start. I believe Cliff Lee is not hurt, but I also believe he may not be hitting the […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson The last time Cliff Lee faced the Nats at Nationals Park, he three-hit them, striking out 12. Jason Marquis has never had much luck against the Phillies, and his 9.67 earned run average against them says it all. The Nationals took the lead early on in the bottom of the third […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson The Phillies hopped on the train to Washington from New York to take on the Nationals for a three-game series. Roy Halladay who has won his last nine decisions against Washington/Montreal took the mound flashing a 2.58 earned run average. The pesky Nats took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of […]
