A pitcher's duel between Josh Johnson and Kyle Kendrick, that's not something you see everyday. Jimmy Rollins did a few awesome things tonight. For one thing, he launched his 41st career leadoff home run. This happened in the first inning, giving his team the early lead. The next feat he accomplished occurred when the game […]
What a way to start off this series with the division-rival Marlins. Cole Hamels was spectacular for the second straight start last night as he tossed his second consecutive complete game shut out. Opposed from his five-hitter against the Braves last week, Hamels allowed just seven hits to the Marlins, who coincidentally, were shutout the […]

According to Philly.Curbed.com, a house that was built with more than 1,000 bricks from the Phillies' old stadium in the late 1970's is for sale, and it's going for […]
Yesterday, the Marlins were no-hit through six innings by Chris Capuano and the Dodgers. Capuano ended up a tossing a two-hitter, shutting out the Fish. Cole Hamels started tonight's ballgame looking to do something along those lines, and did just that. Hamels was brilliant tonight in his second consecutive complete game shutout. The Phillies kicked […]
The hardest hit of the Eagles season happened between two teammates. During team drills, Nate Allen and Nnamdi Asomugha went up for a ball and collided hard with each other. Nate Allen stood up after a brief moment, but Asomugha laid face down on the field for upwards of five minutes. According to Jeff McLane […]
The Phillies were able to prevent a series loss to the Cardinals yesterday as they came back from a 7-4 deficit in the 8th inning with Erik Kratz's three-run home run and came back to win it 8-7 in the 11th inning with a walkoff single from Juan Pierre. Closing out a nine-game homestand with […]
Oh brother. Phillies' OF Nate Schierholtz has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a fractured right toe, according to the Phillies. Infielder Hector Luna has been recalled to take his spot on the roster. The Phillies acquired Schierholtz from the Giants in the deal that sent Hunter Pence to San Francisco back on […]
A sellout crowd, the first since the streak ended, watched as Cliff Lee went for his first win at home of the season. Cliff was dealing through the first few innings, but a downpour of rain and Cardinals offense would slow his rhythm and ruin his chances of that win. The Phillies were making some […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew Roy Halladay was great last night. The Good Doctor was on top of his game against the Cardinals. He allowed just one earned run, a second inning Carlos Beltran home run, over eight frames. Chase Utley put the Phils ontop in the eighth inning with a two-run shot to help secure Doc […]
Tonight Roy Halladay pitched eight innings, allowing only a run on two hits while striking out eight. It seems like The Good Doctor is back. St. Louis’ only run off Halladay came in the second inning when Carlos Beltran ripped a solo shot, his 28th on the season, to give the Cards a 1-0 […]
