Whaaaaat is going on? Just about a dozen hours after the Phillies and ace Roy Halladay turned out a huge clunker, fifth starter Joe Blanton came out and gave the Phillies one of the best pitching performances by any Phillie this season as the Phillies took down the Atlanta Braves 4-0. In a game that […]
Roy Halladay has left the Phillies today for undisclosed personal issues. This comes a day after surrendering a 6-0 lead, giving up 8 runs in the fifth and sixth innings of a 15-13 loss at Atlanta. The Phillies ace is winless since charging out to a 3-0 record, and his fastball is down in velocity. […]
Well, Phillies fans successfully got David Herndon off Twitter. Looks like Michael Schwimer may be the next to want to leave as Phillies fans pounded him with insults after last night's loss in Atlanta. Some cuss words have been taken out to protect our younger readership. Be nice to him…we need him to get us […]
My goodness, what a game. We watched as Roy Halladay slowly became human, followed by an unbelievable come back, followed by more mayhem, followed by another come back, and then a not so happy ending. The Phillies were playing excellent baseball against the sluggish Tommy Hansen. They were really making him work, and were working […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The Phillies are coming off of a 4-2 series-opener win over the Braves last night, their second consecutive win. They were unable to give Cole Hamels enough runs to give him the win, but did however manage a way to find victory last night. Tonight, Roy Halladay (3-2, 1.95 ERA) will aim […]
Totally awesome – the Phillies have called up catcher Erik Kratz, to replace Jim Thome who is headed to the disabled list candidate because of his 42 year-old back. For the Iron Pigs, Kratz may have been one of their most reliable hitters, hitting .294 with four doubles and three home runs. Why Kratz? Here […]
(Philliedelphia/Danielle Wilson) Cole Hamels and Brandon Beachy squared off tonight in Atlanta in the two teams' first meeting of the 2012 season. The Braves scratched Chipper Jones and Jason Heyward while the Phillies are still without Jim Thome (sore back). The Phils were without a hit until the fourth inning when Placido Polanco, who has […]
Party like it's 2007! The Phillies lost reliever David Herndon to the disabled list with an elbow issue, so the Phillies caleld up right-hander Brian Sanches. Yes, Sanches was part of the Phillies first division championship team in this run and part of the team that used a ridiculous 28 pitchers to get through the […]
Welcome to Around the Net, a weekly look through linkage at the Philadelphia Flyers and other news from around the NHL. Oh Danny boy, the goals, the goals are calling… A look back at Sunday's win over the Devils. [Of Ice and Men] Jagr's weird beard Jaromir Jagr channels his inner Sabretooth with his unique […]
We all wanted to forget about yesterday's excruciatingly painful loss to the Cubs in which the Phillies were held to two hits. Well, this game was definitely another crazy one, only the Phillies offense would jump out in front at the start and the close. Chris Volstad started tonight's game for the Cubs in his […]
