Chase Utley made his major-league debut in April 2003. That August, I attended my third ever baseball game, the last I would see live in Veterans Stadium. The second baseman hit seventh that night. The shortstop hit eighth. And those two players would eventually be responsible for so much of my baseball life. In every […]
Photo by Frank Klose/Philliedelphia It’s a sign of the times. The Phillies just completed a six-game homestand against the Marlins and Braves that included a Thursday afternoon game and a weekend series. The attendance only broke 25,000 once, on Sunday’s Phanatic’s birthday celebration, and even then, this annual tradition drew a much smaller crowd of […]
The stadium had a good run. Before the 2014 Phillies take the field, the ballpark could conceivably have a new name. Named Citizens Bank Park since its opening in 2004, a possible sale of Citizens Bank could affect the name on the ballpark. The London Sunday Times is reporting that Citizens Bank could […]
Not much is working in favor of the Phillies these days. After dropping the first two series of the season, Roy Halladay looked to get his first win of the year against Matt Harvey and the Mets tonight, but would see no such luck. Early on, Doc was struggling. In the top of the second, […]
Today marked Opening Day at Citizens Bank Park, and it couldn't have gone much worse.

The Phillies enter tonight's game nine games under .500 and ten games back in the Wild Card. At 57-66 and 39 games left to play, there's a slim – and I mean slim – mathematical possibility that the Phillies could make the playoffs with a Wild Card berth. After winning the series opener against the […]
Doc didn't have his best stuff tonight, but the stuff he had was still dominant. The Reds jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the first. Jay Bruce doubled to bring home Zack Cozart, the first run, then Brandon Phillips scored on a groundout from former Phillie Scott Rolen. The Phils got on the […]
A single one-inning pitching performance made Wilson Valdez a cult hero in Philadelphia. Accordingly when Wilson Valdez was traded this offseason for left-handed reliever Jeremy Horst, widespread irrational panic broke out among Phillies fans. Despite our Mike Frohwirth explaining that Wilson Valdez is not good at baseball at all, people worried about the Phillies […]
