Roy Halladay
Posted by Danielle Wilson The Phillies dropped another game to the Twins this afternoon in Clearwater. Roy Halladay allowed five earned runs on seven hits in 2 2/3 innings. Four of those runs came via home run, the first of the two allowed coming from Josh Willingham, who also hit an RBI single in the […]
Posted by Erik Seybold UPDATE: There is heavy rain over the Lakeland area. There is a possibility the game may be canceled. We will let you know ASAP. After yesterday's extra inning walk-off win against the Pirates, the Phillies have pulled to 3-3 on the Spring. Cole Hamels was spectacular in his outing yesterday, throwing 3 […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. After yesterday's 8-5 loss to the New York Yankees, the Phillies will make the 17 mile trip to George M. Steinbrenner Field to play the second of three consecutive games against the Yankees. Today, Roy Halladay (2011: 19-6, 2.35 ERA) will take the hill and make the start against the Yankees. […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. Photo Courtesy of (@ryanlawrence21)This morning, Roy Halladay took the hill to throw some batting practice to his teammates. At the plate stood Placido Polanco, Shane Victorino, and John Mayberry. No word on how the three did, but I'm sure Halladay tallied higher. Cliff Lee is back on the hill after suffering […]
Posted by: Erik Seybold (Photo Courtesy of @ToddZolecki) Now this story is going to go on for generations and generations to come. Hell, I'm going to tell it to my own (future) children and then they're going to tell their children. They're going to tell the story of how Roy Halladay, Philly's favorite athlete, saved […]

Well, at least the day we've been waiting for before the real day we've been waiting for which is Opening Day. Today, Pitchers and Catchers, as well as select devoted position players, report to beautiful Clearwater, […]
Posted by Frank Klose and @PatEgan Every once in a while I'll snap a picture of a jersey I see at a Phillies game that just seems too ridiculous to ever wear, and a friend introduced me to Pat Egan, who does the same. WMMS – What would Mike Missanelli say: a violation or no? […]
Posted by Mike Frohwirth When St. Louis Cardinals Manager Tony LaRussa announced his postseason pitching rotation, there was jubilation- among the Phillies' fanbase. As Cardinals' ace Chris Carpenter pitched in the division-clinching win on Wednesday, he will be unable to pitch until Game 3. But LaRussa also made the surprising move of holding his 2nd […]
Heading into the game 161 of the 1997 season, Randy Johnson sat at 19-4 for the first place Seattle Mariners, and he was not scheduled to start again before the playoffs. What a shame, it seemed, that Johnson could end the season down one victory from the magic number of 20. Omar Olivares started that […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Halladay walks in the dugout after pitching a strong eight innings. A three-run home run by Ryan Howard, Pete Orr almost got trampled by some racing sausages, and a stellar performance by Roy Halladay. That's about it! The home run came in the first inning against Shaun Marcum, who, like Ryan […]
