This weekend wasn't delightful. Coming out of Pittsburgh with a 1-2 record and just six total runs scored over three games, things don't look so bright out of the gate. The offense is slumpish, but the rotation is gleaming. But it's only April 9th and there's still a long way to go. Don't be worried […]
(Photo: Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) Happy Easter, everybody! I hope the Easter Bunny brought you all of the eggs and chocolates you wanted, but what I want from him is a Phillies win. I know it sounds corny, but hey I have to brighten the mood somehow. Anyway, today's game is the first series finale of the […]
(Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani) Cliff Lee was being squeezed tonight, no doubt about that. In his first start of the 2012 season, the Pirates were really testing him by taking tons of pitches, and having the strikezone to their advantage. The only change the Phillies made in their lineup tonight was putting Laynce Nix at first base […]
Philliedelphia/Steve Trapani The Phillies started off the season on the right foot with their 1-0 win Thursday, but there are still 161 games left to play. Roy Halladay was outstanding as usual in his Opening Day start. He toyed with the Pirates batters the whole day, allowing just two hits (both in the first inning) […]
Happy Opening Day! The best day of the year for fans of baseball young and old. And what better way to kick off the 2012 season than with multiple pitcher's duels? Not only were the Phillies and Pirates held scoreless through six innings, but the Mets didn't score a run against Tommy Hanson of the […]
Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew Ah, finally, the last game of spring training. It certainly didn't feel like spring at Citizens Bank Park on this chilly evening. But, the buzz of baseball in the air is sure to warm your heart. Much the same of last night's game in this on-deck exhibition series, the fans were able to […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Despite this series being the finale of spring training, it's still an exciting two-game exhibition series because it's being played at home, Citizens Bank Park. The Pirates have come to town for two nights before making their way back to Pittsburgh to take on the Phillies for Opening Day. Joe Blanton […]
Posted by Erik Seybold (Photo Philliedelphia/Lindsey Crew) The Phillies had a very ugly Spring and it's time to forget about it. Tonight, the Phillies are playing at Citizens Bank Park for the first time since Game 5 of the NLDS. The occasion: the 2012 On Deck Series. A couple of exhibition games between the Phillies […]
Posted by Danielle Wilson Happy last day of spring training! And what a great last day it was for starter Cliff Lee and the Phillies' offense. In the beginning/middle of the game, anyway. On this Sunday afternoon, the last game of spring training for this Philadelphia team was played against the Atlanta Braves at the […]
Posted by Erik Seybold. (Photo courtesy of Lindsey Crew)So the Phillies lost their last home game of Spring yesterday. Not the best note to leave Clearwater with, but there is still one last game to be played. The Phillies will head up to Lake Buena Vista to play the Braves at Champion Stadium. It's been a […]
