New York Mets
Monday night proved successful for the Phillies as Cliff Lee and his team earned a solid 3-1 win against the Mets. The Phillies got an early lead and maintained it until the end. Hitting and pitching was on point as Lee struck out ten. He earned his sixth win of the year, while helping his […]
Coming off of a 1-3 series loss against the Houston Astros, the worst team in baseball, the Phillies enter New York with the intent of getting back the giddy-up they had in the beginning of September. After being completely eliminated from contention of the NL Eastern Division title yesterday, the Phillies will enter the final […]
As previously posted, Tyler Cloyd was making his major league debut tonight. In an unexpected spot start for the young righty, the Phillies were sure glad he tossed a solid six innigs to avoid a bullpen game. Matt Harvey, a rookie starter for the Mets surrendered a run in the top of the first, a […]
Photo Courtesy: Jay Floyd – PhoulBallz.com. I was gearing up to write a pretty good game preview for Cole Hamels, who would be making his 26th start of the season tonight. However, due to a stomach illness, Hamels has been scratched from tonight's game. In his place will be International League MVP Tyler Cloyd, who […]
It had to happen sometime. Phillies right hander Vance Worley has been placed on the DL after months of pitching with bone chips in his right elbow. Worley is expected to have surgery to remove the bone chips within the next 10 days. The 24 year-old pitcher has been a shell of his 2011 self […]
The bone chip in Vance's elbow is not affecting his pitching, according to Vance. But, his performance has been on a downhill spiral for the entire month of August. In his previous four starts, Vance went 0-3 allowing at least six hits in all of those starts. It didn't get much better tonight. In the […]
The Phillies walked off (and out) of a four-game series with the NL Central leading Reds with a split. They salvaged a series loss last night as John Mayberry Jr. delivered a walkoff single to win it in 11 innings. Coming out of a set with one of the NL's best teams and being able […]
A rubbermatch between Cole Hamels and R.A. Dickey sounds pretty good, doesn't it? Hamels and Dickey went head to head tonight in the first game of the season started by double-digit winners. Dickey has an excellent 2012 season so far up his sleeves with two one-hitters, and a miniscule ERA to match his 12-1 record. […]
The Phillies are 10 games under .500 for the first time since June of 2002. Damn. There's not much to say besides the Phillies need a freaking miracle to head to the postseason, but if they keep playing this way they may just have to give up and become sellers. After being destroyed by the Mets […]
The struggles continued tonight for Phillies starting pitching and the team in general. It's getting more and more frustrating to say the least, and it hasn't been a fun ride over the past week with the Phillies losing more and more games. I know I typically write out a game story, but this would have […]
