The Phillies have won 12 consecutive games at Petco Park in San Diego. Currently, that is the longest active winning streak for any team at any set ball park. Usually Petco Park is some what of a re-boost period for the Phillies. Coming into a four-game series, the Phillies are hoping to pull their heads […]
This is really interesting. From "Naked Philadelphian": I had a chance to talk to Phillies owner Bill Giles and his lovely wife Nancy at the World Affairs Council event for former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Giles, unlike many pro sports teams owners, is always understated. He and his wife were sitting in the cheap […]
The Philadelphia Phillies scored two runs tonight via a sac fly by Jimmy Rollins and Hunter Pence scored on a passed ball. That is all the needed. Meanwhile, Juan Pierre picked up the first triple of the season, it was wasted nonetheless. The Padres had first and third with one out. Jeremy Hermida was […]
Read this line to yourself again after you read it the first time. It can't be real, right? Cliff Lee- 10 IP, 0 R, 7 H, 0 BB, 7 K, No decision Say what? Out of all the shocking stuff in there, the most disturbing is the last part. Cliff Lee got a no decision […]
This game was pretty much simple– no offense and a pitching duel. Cliff Lee: 10 innings; 7 hits; 0 BBs; 7Ks, induced 4 big double plays on 102 pitches (81 strikes, 21 balls). Matt Cain: 9 innings; 2 hits; 1BB; 4Ks. Carlos Ruiz leadoff double was wasted in the top of the 11th…. Antonio Bastardo […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The series is split one a piece thus far. Roy Halladay beat out Tim Lincecum and the Giants 5-2 Monday night while Madison Bumgarner and the Giants' bats beat out Joe Blanton and held the Phillies to just two runs last night. Tonight is the series finale and the Phillies are looking […]
It took him two previous tries that both resulted in losses, but last night 49 year-old Jamie Moyer took to the hill in Denver and made history. Jamie Moyer became the oldest pitcher to ever win a major league game at the age of 49 years and 151 days. Moyer beat out former Brooklyn Dodger […]
The Phillies lost to the Giants 4-2 last night. The offense wasn't so good. All the way across the country, 3,000 miles from San Francisco, the Reading Phillies were playing the Giants affiliate in the Eastern League, the Richmond Flying Squirrels. Playing at the famed ballpark in Richmond, "The Diamond," Reading scored more runs than […]
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz….. Phillies lose 4-2. That is all.
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) It's going to be a long week with these games starting at 10:15 PM ET. I didn't stay up to see Papelbon close out the 9th inning, but I did stay awake for Doc's outing. Doc was fantastic last night in the Phillies 5-2 win over San Francisco. Doc earned his third […]
