Ryan Howard
Roy Halladay returned to Citizens Bank Park for the first time since coming off the disabled list during the Dodgers series. He would face Randy Wolf and the Milwaukee Brewers. It didn't start out on a good note for Doc. In the first inning, Carlos Gomez was able to score on a double from Aramis […]
Roy Halladay made his return to baseball tonight after missing 42 days total with his latissimus dorsi strain. He did so against Stephen Fife, a 25-year-old making his major league debut for the sidelined Chad Billingsley. Much like they've been doing more of recently, the Phillies scored first. Jimmy Rollins scored in the top of […]
These late night games can really get weird. Joe Blanton opened up a series in Los Angeles with a whale of an effort (unintentional weight joke, you're lookin' good, Joe) to shut down the Dodgers' lineup for the most part. The leaders in the National League West and the bottom feeders of the National League […]
Hard to not see this one coming. According to FOX Sports' Jon Morosi, Phillies centerfielder Shane Victorino has a lot of teams who have interest in his services. According to him, Victorino may be the first to go this season. Something that should grab your attention: A high-ranking executive with one club predicted that Victorino […]
During the All-Star break, Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard teamed up with StateFarm to answer a few questions from our blog, Philliedelphia. Check out the video as Ryan looks forward to the second half and how he thinks the Phillies can do. Ryan teamed up with State Farm and helped spread State Farm’s initiative, […]

Despite the break being just four days, it's the biggest break between games they've had all year and maybe they can figure something out. The Phillies have already dropped this series to Atlanta after losing the first two games, but […]
Last night was just another sad example of 2012 Phillies baseball. It's almost guaranteed that Kendrick could have gone eight innings last night. He was at 89 pitches. 89 pitches, Charlie. Antonio Bastardo blew the game after surrendering five two-out runs in the eighth inning. The Braves got away with a win against the Phillies […]

Howard himself was effective, going 2 for 4 with a double. There were two major problems with last night's despicable loss: 1) The lineup was constructed out […]
The final series of the first half began tonight in Philadelphia with the Atlanta Braves paying a visit. Kyle Kendrick and Tim Hudson would square off in what would turn into quite the pitcher's duel. With Ryan Howard back in the lineup, the Phillies were looking better than they have all season, and the Braves […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Kevin Durso) Yesterday was just pathetic. Seriously, you have to give an effort to lose like that. The Phils had the series in the bag until the 9th inning of yesterday's game that ended with a Mets walk-off win. The Phillies are looking to turn a new direction this weekend as they head into the […]
