Ty Wigginton
Alright guys, it's two days into the offseason and I'm already going through baseball withdrawl. The offseason is the time to make moves that teams couldn't make during the season. Acquisitions will be easier as free agents are the prominent target for teams. Although trades can take place as well, I'll be looking at my […]
If you were hoping for a game with lots of hitting and lots of excitement, you watched the right ballgame this evening. After taking game one of this doubleheader with a walk-off victory, the Phillies were looking for a clean sweep of the Rockies tonight in game two. The Phillies scored first this evening in […]
Cliff Lee won his fourth game of the season this evening against the Atlanta Braves. Lee pitched a masterful outing of seven innings, allowing just five hits, walking one, and striking out five. Lee was taken out after seven after reporting a tight hamstring. Lee later said it was not anything serious, just a cramp. […]
In Vance's previous four starts, he had gone less than six innings and had allowed four or more earned runs. Vance would go six again, but it was a much better start than his last. While Bronson Arroyo was tossing a no-hitter through five innings, the Reds were backing him up with some offense. In […]
Danielle Wilson/Philliedelphia This didn't look promising from the sixth inning on, but another burst of offense would lead the Phillies to another comeback win, as crazy as it sounds. Another rough start to tonight's game led the Brewers to scoring the first run. This happened in the top of the first when Corey Hart singled […]
Cole Hamels and David Price squared off this afternoon in the first game of a double-header. Friday's game was washed out, pushing a game back to 6:35 tonight, and starting this game 30 minutes early. It was a scoreless battle between the Phils and Rays until the sixth inning when Jimmy Rollins jacked a solo […]
Just another one of those games on a sweltering June night. As big of a problem as situational hitting is for the Phillies, it seems to be getting worse as the season progresses. Vance Worley isn't a big fan of the heat and humidity, as seen in his dripping-wet pitcher's goggles. Despite the heat, Vance […]
Chase Utley went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and played eigth innings in the field in last night's rehab start with Clearwater. He can return to the Phillies no later than July 2. (Philliedelphia/Kevin Durso) There was more than one situation last night when the Phillies could have used Chase Utley's bat at the […]
The Phillies looked really good tonight for the first time in a while. The bats were working and the arm of their starting pitcher, Joe Blanton, was good enough to defeat the Twins 6-1. The Phils struck first in the second inning when Ty Wigginton hit a solo home run, his seventh of the season. […]
The Phillies were simply looking to have fun coming into this series against the Minnesota Twins. As assumed by the fans, the entire Phils lineup sported high socks tonight in honor of Jim Thome. Whether that's true or not, it's certainly different. Also, a majority of the team wore Hunter Pence's t-shirts that read […]
