The Phils end their six game losing streak with an impressive win.  Cliff Lee also finally gets his first win of the season.  Lee pitched a great game and the Phils offense came through with nine runs.  The Phils were behind 2-0 in the 7th before exploding in the final three innings.  Chase Utley started the scoring with a two run Home Run to tie the game.  Carlos Ruiz followed up with with a Home Run of his own to give the Phils a 3-2 lead.  The offense scored three more runs in each the 8th and 9th innings to get the win.  It was great to see Lee get his first win and hopefully he can build on it in his next start.  The Phils go for the series win against the Mets tomorrow night with Cole Hamels on the mound.  Go Phils!!!

Another good win by the Phils.  Vance Worley pitched well to improve his record to 4-4 and Jonathan Papelbon got his 18th save of the season. Carlos Ruiz continues to be the MVP of the team with two RBIs and a Home Run. The Phils look to win their third straight game tomorrow night and hopefully my hero Chase Utley will be back in the lineup.  Go Phils!!!

I agree with you completely and I can't wait to see Chase in action!!!

Nice win for the Phils as they start this four game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates.  Joe Blanton pitched well for his seventh win of the season and the offense came through with eight runs.  Even the bullpen did its job and allowed no runs in its two innings of work.  Vance Worley pitches tomorrow night as the Phils go for two in a row against the Pirates.  Go Phils!!!

Hi everybody,

LP:   Antonio Bastardo (2-2)

Jimmy Rollins gets an RBI (24)
Ty Wigginton gets an RBI (30)

Jimmy Rollins gets a Home Run (7)


The Phils lose the first game of the doubleheader 3-2.  Cole Hamels pitched well for seven innings, leaving the game with a 1-0 lead.  The 1-0 lead was because of Jimmy Rollins solo Home Run in the six inning.  It was Rollins 3rd Home Run in as many games.  Antonio Bastardo entered the game in the 8th inning and proceeded to give up a three run Home Run.  The Phils managed to add another run in the bottom of the 8th but that was all.  The Phils try for the split in about twenty minutes with Cliff Lee on the mound.  Go Phils!!!

Great game by the Phils to win the series.  Joe Blanton pitched a complete game and looked very sharp.  Jim Thome hit his 3rd Home Run of the season and brought his RBI total to 13.  All of his Home Runs and RBIs have been obtained during the last six games and he is looking great at the plate. The Phils head to Toronto to play a weekend series against the Blue Jays. Go Phils!!!

The Phils lose their third straight and have lost nine out of their last ten games.  They are now 9.5 games out of first place in the NL East and are fading fast.  At least Chase Utley played in a minor league game today and will be back with the club by July 3rd at the latest (barring any setback).  I am starting to fear that the Phils will be too far out of it by the time he gets back. I'm too bummed to write anymore so I'm off to bed.

Great come from behind win for the Phils to end the road trip with a 5-2 record.  The Phils also gained a game in the NL East standings and are now only 3 games out of first place.  Jimmy Rollins had a huge game with three hits, three RBIs and a Home Run.  Carlos Ruiz also came through with a pinch hit Home Run to tie the game in the top of the 7th.  Shane Victorino and Ty Wigginton also got some key hits and RBIs.  Unfortunately Cliff Lee once again did not get the win even though he pitched well enough to earn it.  The Phils enjoy an day off before a weekend series at home against the Miami Marlins.  Go Phils!!!

Good win by the Phils!  It was a fun game to watch.  Cole Hamels won his eighth straight game.  Ty Wigginton was the big hero with a career high six RBIs and his fourth Home Run of the season.  John Mayberry Jr. also hit his second Home Run of the year.  The Phils will go for their second straight win tomorrow night against the Mets with Joe Blanton on the mound.  Hopefully we'll also have some good news about Roy Halladay and Carlos Ruiz.  Go Phils!!!

Great win by the Phils!  It was a back and forth slug fest but they managed to beat the Cardinals 10-9.  Freddy Galvis continues to hit and field well.  Shane Victorino also is hitting better lately as he drove in three RBIs.  The Phils are once again at .500 and will have Cliff lee on the mound tonight.  It's time for Lee to get his 1st win of the season.  Go Phils!!!

Another frustrating loss by the Phils.  Once again the Phils are unable to score runs after getting multiple opportunities.  Kyle Kendrick pitched well enough to win this game.  The bullpen also pitched well for two scoreless innings.  The six game win streak seems so long ago and now the Phils are half way to a six game losing streak.  Let's hope Roy Halladay can get the Phils back on the winning track tomorrow.

Sorry that I did not post this last night.  The Phils win their six straight game to improve their record to 21-19.  Cole Hamels won his 6th game of the season and Carlos Ruiz continues to impress at the plate as he got two more RBIs.  Hunter Pence and Freddy Galvis also hit Home Runs.  Jonathan Papelbon got his 12th save at the expense of his former team.  Joe Blanton is on the mound tonight as the Phils go for seven straight wins.  Go Phils!!!
