Posted by Danielle Wilson Harry Leroy Halladay III was unquestionably dealing this afternoon at Citizens Bank Park against the LOLMets. Unquestionably. Through the first three innings, Doc threw 23 pitches, 21 for strikes. He allowed two singles, but did anyone care? Not at all. In the fourth, Daniel Murphy and David Wright both singled, and Murphy scored […]

The Bruins aren't the Sabres and the Flyers learned that the hard way Saturday afternoon, dropping the opening game of the Eastern Conference Semifinals 7-3. Tim Thomas had 31 saves on 34 shots while both David Krejci and Brad Marchand had two-goal games to help the Bruins win. Patrice Bergeron had three assists as Boston […]

Unfortunately, they had to do it without Carlos Ruiz who left the game in the first inning due to lower back tightness. Cole Hamels took the mound […]
Hamels legged out an infield single, but the person at the Comcast controls decided that it should be an out as they wiped out baserunner John Mayberry and put in three outs.

That lead did not last long. Arizona starting pitcher Daniel Hudson helped his own cause, ripping a two-run double in the second inning off of Oswalt. The D-backs played small ball, […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth Closer Jose Contreras joined previous closer Brad Lidge on the Disabled List on Sunday, further depleting the Phillies' bullpen. It's easy to look at Contreras' workload over the past week (four appearances in five days/five appearances in seven days), and conclude that Phillies' Manager Charlie Manuel overworked the veteran reliever, which […]
