Philadelphia Phillies
So last night, Roy Oswalt was sitting at home bored and figured he would jump back on Twitter. We all went crazy and begged him to return to Philly, to which he replied "I would love to come back to Philly,". Today, some few 15 hours after Roy Halladay's terrible start against the Mets, Roy […]
Not much is working in favor of the Phillies these days. After dropping the first two series of the season, Roy Halladay looked to get his first win of the year against Matt Harvey and the Mets tonight, but would see no such luck. Early on, Doc was struggling. In the top of the second, […]
Today marked Opening Day at Citizens Bank Park, and it couldn't have gone much worse. In the bottom of the first, Jimmy Rollins, Chase Utley, and Ryan Howard combined for three straight singles, Rollins was able to score on Howard's hit. 1-0 Phils. Domonic Brown led off the bottom of the second, and took Royals' […]
(Photo: Fightins.com) There will be ostriches in the outfield this season at FirstEnergy Stadium. No…this isn't an April Fool's joke. This is really happening. It seems like the minor league affiliates of the Phillies are getting really creative now-a-days. First the Lehigh Valley IronPigs will offer a pee-controlled video game in their restrooms and now, […]
Happy Opening Night, Phillies fans! Cole Hamels was your Opening Night starter tonight for the first time in his career. Hamels faced Tim Hudson on the mound. Atlanta hopped ahead to an early 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. With Jason Heyward on base, Freddie Freeman brought him home with a two-run […]
The Phillies played their second-to-last game in Florida this afternoon as they took on the Tigers. Cole Hamels and Justin Verlander got the start, six days before both are set to start on Opening Day. The Phillies got out to an early lead in the first as Michael Young sac-flied to score Ben Revere, who […]
The Phillies were crushed yesterday, 13-4 at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays. John Lannan was lit up for 12 earned runs on 14 hits through four innings in yesterday's ball game. Lannan's response to his horrific start? "Got my butt kicked, gotta move on." Great response and attitude. Given that it is […]
We are in the final week of spring training and in one week's time, every game played will matter. The Phillies will be in Atlanta on April 1st, but before they head down south they will stop at Citizens Bank Park for a three-game On-Deck Series with the Toronto Blue Jays. Today John Lannan (1-1, […]
The Phillies were obliterated, 17-10 yesterday at the hand of the Atlanta Braves. Overall, the Phillies played terribly, accounting for three errors in the loss. Rodrigo Lopez took the loss after allowing 8 runs (7 earned) across two innings. This morning Lopez was optioned to minor-league camp after four appearances this spring. Lopez, 37, will […]
Happy Saint Patrick's Day to all! What started out as a disastrous outing for one Roy Halladay turned into an excellent game for the Phillies bullpen against the Baltimore Orioles. In one inning, Doc allowed one hit, walked one, and struck out one before heading into the clubhouse. It was announced shortly after that Doc […]
