For a team that's 19.5 games back of their weekend adversary, they sure didn't play like it. Kyle Kendrick has left us Phillies fans speechless lately. In his last two starts against Miami and Milwaukee, Kyle went at least seven innings, giving up no more than five hits, and he did not allow a run […]
Today the Phillies placed backup catcher Brian Schneider on the 15-day disabled list. What do you do when your backup goes down and the guy he is backing up is also down? Good thing the Phillies are out of it. Steven Lerud was the best they could do. Lerud was the best they could do […]

The Phillies walked off (and out) of a four-game series with the NL Central leading Reds with a split. They salvaged a series loss last night as John Mayberry Jr. delivered a walkoff single to win it in 11 innings. Coming out of a set with one of the NL's best teams and being able […]
You knew these kinds of stupid headlines were coming as soon as the Nationals pulled away from the Phillies, but still, seriously? Nats Park North? The Nats have had a really good year, playing their way to the front of the pack, even if I count myself as one of those saying it's lucky, and […]

I think there is a Cy Young winner in the house tonight. Is it the home team's staff ace, Cole Hamels (14-6/IP-171.1 /ERA-2.94/K-168/BB-42/WHIP-1.11)?

How does anyone get a hit off this […]
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.
