Roy Halladay
When the Phillies have a weekend pitching staff of Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, and Cole Hamels, you know it's bound to be a winning series, or maybe a sweep against the Atlanta Braves. All started out swiftly for the Phils. Ryan Howard put up the game's first run in the top of the second with […]
The Phillies barely walked out of their last series alive. Dropping the first two games of the last series with the Mets until September 17, the Phillies salvaged the finale under Kyle Kendrick yesterday and pulled out a win. Still seven games under .500, the Phillies have fallen back into inconsistent game play. Going 16-12 in […]
Doc didn't have his best stuff tonight, but the stuff he had was still dominant. The Reds jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the first. Jay Bruce doubled to bring home Zack Cozart, the first run, then Brandon Phillips scored on a groundout from former Phillie Scott Rolen. The Phils got on the […]
The Phillies are coming back from a road trip in which they went 4-3 against the Marlins and Brewers. Coming back to Citizens Bank Park for a ten-game homestand, the Phillies will be faced with an entertaining schedule. Tonight, they will open up a four-game series with the Reds. A three-game set with the Nats […]
The Phillies were able to prevent a series loss to the Cardinals yesterday as they came back from a 7-4 deficit in the 8th inning with Erik Kratz's three-run home run and came back to win it 8-7 in the 11th inning with a walkoff single from Juan Pierre. Closing out a nine-game homestand with […]
Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew Roy Halladay was great last night. The Good Doctor was on top of his game against the Cardinals. He allowed just one earned run, a second inning Carlos Beltran home run, over eight frames. Chase Utley put the Phils ontop in the eighth inning with a two-run shot to help secure Doc […]
On October 7, 2011 the Philadelphia Phillies played in what could be their final "golden era" game. Best friends Chris Carpenter and Roy Halladay squared off in an epic Game 5 of the NLDS in an effort to push their teams to the next stage of the postseason. Carpenter was able to fend off Halladay […]
Last night was just another example of the 2012 Phillies. Poor play, no drive to play for win and the inability to hit with runners in scoring position. Vance Worley allowed four earned runs on six hits through 3 2/3 innings, but left early with what was later diagnosed by Charlie Manuel as "stomach issues". […]
A quick and easy win, just what the doctor ordered for the Phillies. Roy Halladay took the mound tonight looking for a win amidst a string of losses, hoping to out-duel Joe Saunders, which, being Roy Halladay, shouldn't be an issue. With Doc cruising, Erik Kratz provided a 1-0 lead in the third inning with […]
The Phillies may have traded two-thirds of their outfield yesterday after a dismal first-half of the season, resulting in a fire sale in the Phillie's front office, but they came right out of the gates last night and pounced on Stephen Strasburg to take game one of this three game set. After an 8-0 victory […]
