Roy Halladay
My goodness, what a game. We watched as Roy Halladay slowly became human, followed by an unbelievable come back, followed by more mayhem, followed by another come back, and then a not so happy ending. The Phillies were playing excellent baseball against the sluggish Tommy Hansen. They were really making him work, and were working […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The Phillies are coming off of a 4-2 series-opener win over the Braves last night, their second consecutive win. They were unable to give Cole Hamels enough runs to give him the win, but did however manage a way to find victory last night. Tonight, Roy Halladay (3-2, 1.95 ERA) will aim […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies went from hitting the crap out of the ball, to not seeing it at all. This series with Chicago has literally been a roller coaster series. With the Phils dropping the third game yesterday, they fell to 1-2 against the Cubs and tonight they'll turn to Vance Worley in effort to […]
Last night the Phillies rebounded from a bad loss on Friday night. Joe Blanton earned his second win of the year after the offense, led by Jimmy Rollins and Carlos Ruiz, scored five runs to give the Phils their 10th win of the year. Jimmy Rollins batted leadoff for the first time this year and […]
It's safe to say we're all tired of these kinds of losses. Roy Halladay was pitching himself a beauty of a game against the Chicago Cubs in the two teams' first meeting of the season. Paul Maholm hasn't had much luck against the Phillies in recent years, but that was about to change. Doc retired […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phils are coming back from a West Coast road trip in which they finished 5-5. They won just one series match up, against the D-backs, in four tries. The Phils managed just 15 runs through the first seven games of the road trip, but in the last two they seemed to […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) The Phils are 7-9 on the year. My panic level? Not so high, it's only April and there are still five months of baseball to play. My frustration level? Through the freakin' roof. Watching this team play over the past two weeks has been absolute torture. They can't hit to save their […]
If you believe what you read, the Phillies haven't had and real negotiations with Cole Hamels and his agent about a long term deal. No progress has been made. Come November, he will be a free agent. He'll get at least a six year offer, and probably at least $130 million on the market, and […]
Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani It had been 13 games since the Phillies had lost a game at Petco Park. But as we know, all streaks come to an end sometime. The Padres routed the Phils 5-1 last night, winning their first game at home against the Phillies for the first time since 2008. Roy Halladay wasn't as […]
(Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) It's games like these that really make you wonder how the rest of this season will treat the Phils. Roy Halladay took the mound tonight in the third game of this four-game series against Cory Luebke and the Padres. The Phillies were looking to extend their winning streak in San Diego to 14 […]
