Phillies Drop Sixth Straight; Three-Hit by Niese and Mets in 11-1 Loss

The struggles continued tonight for Phillies starting pitching and the team in general. It's getting more and more frustrating to say the least, and it hasn't been a fun ride over the past week with the Phillies losing more and more games.  I know I typically write out a game story, but this would have […]

Phillies Lose Despite Battling Back From 5-0 Deficit

When the Phillies opted to go with a "bullpen game" in last night's contest against the Pirates, it meant that today's starter had to at least keep the game close heading into the 7th inning for the team or the bullpen to have a chance to win. It didn't look like that was going to […]

Carlos Ruiz Drives in Seven Runs in 15-13 Extra-Inning Loss to Braves

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.

Antonio Alfonseca, Jose Mesa Unavailable, So Phillies Call on Brian Sanches

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 […]
