View image | gettyimages.com A struggling offense has been the primary reason for the Phillies (3-6) current four-game losing streak. There aren't many bright spots in the lineup and it has shown as the Mets dominated a three-game series sweep earlier this week. The Phillies next series comes in Washington as they meet the […]
View image | gettyimages.com As the starting pitchers have gone, so have the Phillies (1-2). David Buchanan joined Cole Hamels on Thursday night in first-start struggles, allowing six runs in the third inning allowing the Boston Red Sox to claim the series. Jerome Williams makes his first impression on the 2015 season Friday night. […]
If this is how the Nationals are going to play in the postseason, then the rest of the National League playoff contenders better watch out. The Phillies fell victim again to the Nats tonight in the final home game of the 2012 season. The Phils may be looking powerful as of late, but they were […]
Last night's victory over the Washington Nationals postponed their celebration for another day. To match that, the Atlanta Braves clinched a playoff spot with a walk-off win, and now they're looking to take over first place in the National League East. They can do that if the Phillies continue dominating the Nats. Kyle Kendrick, a […]
Ah, the last home series of the 2012 season, and another series that must turnout in the Phillies' favor, otherwise their playoff chances may be an idea of the past. Cole Hamels and Ross Detwiler took the mound tonight, both looking to help their teams work towards a red October. The Nats would take a […]
For a team that's 19.5 games back of their weekend adversary, they sure didn't play like it. Kyle Kendrick has left us Phillies fans speechless lately. In his last two starts against Miami and Milwaukee, Kyle went at least seven innings, giving up no more than five hits, and he did not allow a run […]
I always say the best way to turn a losing streak around is to trade 2/3 of your outfield. The home team has certainly shown up the past two games and they send Cole Hamels to the mound tonight to complete the sweep. I really want this one, myself. The Nationals got under my skin […]
If it didn't sink in during last night's game, it definitely sunk in tonight: This is a new era of Phillies baseball in the outfield. Nate Schierholtz and Domonic Brown started tonight (Brown in LF) with John Mayberry, Jr. in center. As much as it hurts to say this, Shane and Hunter are an […]
In the top of the fourth inning of today's Nationals-Marlins series finale in Miami, the fourth inning was disrupted by an verbal altercation between Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen and Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper. As Bryce Harper came to the plate, the 19-year old Harper made a gesture with his bat to veteran manager Ozzie Guillen, […]
The 83rd annual All-Star Game brought about quite an impressive array of the league's best starting pitchers and power hitters. Our Philadelphia Phillies sent out three of their top guys to Kansas City: Catcher Carlos Ruiz, starting pitcher Cole Hamels, and closer Jonathan Papelbon. All of these men took the field (or mound) tonight against […]
