The Phillies surely know how to pick a good day to win in dramatic fashion. How about yesterday? It was crazy. Honestly, I thought we'd done against Chapman – especially after Cliff Lee was picked off. That wasn't the case, however, as Erik Kratz homered to tie it and right after that Freddy Galvis shot […]
The Phillies were very impressive in last night's 6-2 win over the Indians. Jonathan Pettibone went 6 2/3 innings, his longest outing yet. Allowing two runs on four hits while striking out three, Pettibone was also backed up by his offense – something that needs to show this afternoon for Cole Hamels (1-5, 4.18 ERA). […]
The Phillies wasted yet another Cole Hamels gem of a game last night by failing to score any run support. Taking the 2-1 loss, their second one-run loss in a row, the Phillies fell to 16-20 on the year and Cole Hamels, who allowed two earned runs through six, fell to 1-5 on the year. […]
I was very impressed with the Phillies series in San Francisco these past three days. Taking the first two with runs that backed up great outings from their starting pitchers and even tying yesterday's game in the ninth showed me that the Phillies aren't giving up. Even if Roy Halladay won't be back until late-July, […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies went back to the pathetic bunch of tee-ball-skilled hitters last night (no offense to those of you who are parents of a tee-baller). Really? One hit against the Miami Marlins? C'mon, guys what happened to the can of whoop a** you put on them in the first two games? Cole […]
The Phillies are on a roll in New York and it's been a fantastic weekend full of runs, more runs and great pitching. Kyle Kendrick threw a complete game shut out on Friday and Jonathan Pettibone earned his first career win as the Phillies' bats backed him big time scoring nine runs yesteday to take […]
The Phillies were completely shut down offensively last night. Managing just four hits, the Phillies lost their 12th game of the year, falling three under .500. Cole Hamels allowed two earned runs on seven hits through eight innings. It wasn't enough though, as Hamels took his third loss to bring him to 0-3 for the […]
Last night was a good example of how small ball can produce wins. The Phillies used the runners on base to score and it worked out. It would have been nicer if they had gotten a couple more runs, but a win is a win. Jonathan Pettibone debuted last night and he was solid, allowing […]
After a three-game sweep from the Cincinnati Reds, the Phillies started a blank slate tonight at Citizens Bank Park against the Cardinals. Cole Hamels and Adam Wainwright squared off tonight. The Cardinals jumped ahead to a 2-0 lead in the top of the fourth after Yadier Molina doubled to score Matt Holliday and Allen Craig. […]
(Photo: Kevin Durso/Philliedelphia)After coming out of their six-game road trip 2-4, the Phillies (6-9) are back home tonight to host the St. Louis Cardinals (8-6) for a four-game set. With offense being an issue lately, there are other concerns that the Phillies must tend to – including John Lannan. Lannan started last night's game against […]
