The Phillies have lost five straight games after winning five straight games. Baseball sure is a funny sport, a lot of things happen that leave us scratching our heads. That's what this team has basically done all year to us. The past two nights in Minnesota have nobody else to blame but the bullpen. Tyler […]
After dropping three out of four to Milwaukee this weekend, the Phillies dropped back below .500. Before the series in Milwaukee, the Phillies had won six straight and had earned a +.500 record for the first time all season. Jonathan Pettibone was tagged for four runs and the Phillies were unable to put a dent […]
We had ourselves a pitcher's duel tonight on this Jackie Robinson Day in Cincinnati between Cliff Lee and Bronson Arroyo. (.Gif file courtesy of Eliot on Twitter) Lee, backed by some stellar offense in center field (and possibly the best play of the year), was dominating the Reds tonight. The story was the same for […]
A rubber match game on a Sunday afternoon brought about a battle between Cole Hamels and James Shields. The Phillies looked to take the series from the Royals, and it wouldn't be an easy task. The Phils looked hot in the bottom of the first after taking a 4-0 lead. Ben Revere, Jimmy Rollins, and […]
We are in the final week of spring training and in one week's time, every game played will matter. The Phillies will be in Atlanta on April 1st, but before they head down south they will stop at Citizens Bank Park for a three-game On-Deck Series with the Toronto Blue Jays. Today John Lannan (1-1, […]
Happy Saint Patrick's Day to all! What started out as a disastrous outing for one Roy Halladay turned into an excellent game for the Phillies bullpen against the Baltimore Orioles. In one inning, Doc allowed one hit, walked one, and struck out one before heading into the clubhouse. It was announced shortly after that Doc […]

Doc stayed in for 2.2 innings, tossing 69 pitches total. His line from this afternoon: 2.2 IP, 6 H, 7 ER, 4 BB, 2 K, […]
The Phillies and the Braves will meet today for the first time this spring. It's not that big of a deal, being that it is only spring training, but it will also showcase how two of the top three teams in the NL East will bare against each other headed into the 2013 campaign. Cole […]
(Photo courtesy of Casey Landman on Twitter/Instagram) Smell that? That's the smell of Phillies baseball. The first official spring training game started this afternoon in Clearwater with Cole Hamels on the mound against Lucas Harrell and the Astros. Cole pitched a solid two innings today allowing just one hit, walking none, and striking out one. […]
(Photo: Todd Zolecki/2012) It's been nearly five whole months since we've heard any news about the Good Doctor. No heroic tales from the Amazon, nor any updates on his health. Today, however, there is some good news about the Phillies ace. According to CSN's Jim Salisbury, Roy Halladay will throw from a mound (weather permitting) […]
