Cliff Lee, Kevin Slowey Face-Off In Rubber Match

The Phillies had an offensive explosion last night. Ryan Howard led the charge with three hits along with three RBIs. The Phillies would score seven runs last night to take game two of the series. It's a shame that they couldn't share any runs with Cole Hamels on Monday, but that can't be changed. They […]

Cliff Lee Gets the Nod In Series Opener with Reds

The Phillies were pounded yet again by the Indians in Wednesday's series finale. Cole Hamels was roughed up, allowing five runs on six hits through five innings of work.

Kyle Kendrick Looks To Spur Phillies Back At Home In Series Opener Against Miami

I'll be honest, the Phillies suck right now. Even after they washed away the Mets this past weekend, they went back to their old ways of failure to hit with runners on and simply score. The Indians scored a total of 20 runs between Tuesday and Wednesday, completely obliterating the Phillies in both games. Roy […]

Cliff Lee Faces Indians For First Time Since Trade, Looks To Cool Down Tribe’s Bats

Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey CrewYesterday was completely disgusting. Losing 14-2 just about explains itself. The Phillies' pitching got creamed and their offense was unable to come remotely close. The Indians are hot right now. They've scored 33 runs in their last three games and decimated Roy Halladay last night. Tonight the Phillies are looking for a split […]

Cliff Lee Takes The Mound In Search Of Series Split With Bucs

Yesterday sucked. Plain and simple. In yet another great outing from a starting pitcher ruined by the bullpen, the Phillies fell to the Pirates 5-3 last night in game three. Roy Halladay tossed six innings of one-hit, one-run ball in his third straight solid start. After leaving the game with a 3-1 lead, the bullpen […]
