Last night was a terrible loss, 10-0 if you will. Raul Valdes was creamed and Max Scherzer cruised his way to his 15th victory of the year. Losing their 7th straight game, the Phillies are now six games under .500 with three days left until the trade deadline. Losing the first two games of this […]
The Phillies had high hopes headed into the All-Star Break. After finishing the first half at .500, the Phillies came out of the gates blazing against the Mets in their first game of the second half. Winning 13-8 on Friday was the only win the Phillies would see in that three-game set with New York. […]
The Phillies have certainly showed signs of life in the first seven games of this 10-game home stand, going 5-2 against the Braves and Nationals. Kyle Kendrick was spectactular last night, allowing an earned run over seven innings to give the Phillies a 3-1 win over the Nats and a 3-1 series win. Tonight the […]
With a day off yesterday after getting it handed to them by the Dodgers, the Phillies will take on the Pittsburgh Pirates in a three-game matchup before heading back home. 9 1/2 games out in the NL East, the Phillies will send out Jonathan Pettibone (3-3, 4.17 ERA) to take on the Pirates. Brandon Cumpton […]
The Phillies were unable to defeat a minor-league team last night and opened up this three-game series with the Mets with a 4-3 loss. Cole Hamels was given a three-run lead, but he was unable to keep it as he allowed four earned runs through six innings. Due to the inability to keep the three-run […]
After dropping the first game of this four-game series, the Phillies have won two straight including last night's 4-2 win. Kyle Kendrick got his fifth win of the year after tossing six innings of two-run ball. Kendrick wouldn't have had a win if it weren't for Domonic Brown and his two home runs. Brown clocked […]
The first meeting of the season between the Phils and Nats didn't go exactly as planned last night. Kyle Kendrick didn't have his stuff and was all over the place and thanks to a Ben Revere goof, the Nationals gained a lead in the fifth inning and ran away with it, 5-2. Taking the first […]
So far this series in San Francisco has gone just the way the Phillies have wanted it to. Collecting wins in the first two games behind great outings from Cliff Lee on Monday and Kyle Kendrick last night as well as run support, the Phillies have already sealed the series win. This afternoon they will […]
Last night was an imrovement from the series from Hell in Cleveland. Kyle Kendrick was yet again solid in a seven-inning bout against the Marlins. KK registered his second win of the year last night as he allowed two earned on seven hits while striking out five. Bringing his ERA down to 2.42, Kendrick maintains […]
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 […]
