Mets starter Bobby Parnell started strong, but a tough Cubs line-up was too much for the young right hander, who gave up a grand slam home run to Jake Fox in the fifth inning as an otherwise light-hitting Cubs line-up took down the New Yorkers 11-4 at Wrigley on Saturday. To make matters worse, [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(73-52, 1st in NL East) had a bit of a surprise and a possible worry when in Pittsburgh this week. They had opportunities to win all three games, and three times late comebacks caused at the least, extra innings if not a loss. Monday and Tuesday the leads were blown by the bullpen, [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies guaranteed at the least a series split in New York against the Mets yesterday with a 9-7 victory. A game that started out looking like a laugher, as the Phillies got three run home runs from Jayson Werth and Carlos Ruiz in the first, ended up being much closer. Pedro Martinez started [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(69-49, 1st in NL East) are coming into this Mets series playing some of their best baseball of the year. The problem is, they don’t need their best baseball this time, as the Mets are completely depleted. The Phillies have won eight of nine games since being swept by the Marlins two weekends [...]

Last night in Philadelphia, it was Pedro’s home debut, unfortunately Mother Nature didn’t cooperate. Pedro Martinez got through three innings before a rain delay of just over an hour and he didn’t come back and couldn’t try to get a win, as he left losing. Jamie Moyer(11-9) came in and pitched the final six innings [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(66-49, 1st in NL East) had a good weekend against the Braves and put a slight bit of distance between those two teams now. The Marlins also won two out of three games, so the Marlins still stand 4.5 games back, so the Phillies still have a fire lit under them. This week, [...]

Pedro Martinez made his debut for the Philadelphia Phillies last night, replacing Jamie Moyer in the rotation and managed to get a win. Martinez(1-0) went five innings allowing seven hits and three runs, while striking out five and he allowed two of his three runs in the fifth. He was helped by a Phillies offense [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(61-48, 1st in NL East) have actually not been very good since they acquired Cliff Lee at the deadline. Cliff Lee is 2-0 and J.A. Happ has one win, but that is all as the Phillies were most recently swept by the Marlins. Some of the bigger news out of Philly was the [...]

The person that appears to be the new Phillies ace helped them take two of three from the formerly hot Rockies Wednesday afternoon in Philly. Cliff Lee(2-0) went seven innings and only allowed six hits, one walk and one run while striking out nine. He was not given a lot of run support, but he [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies(59-44, 1st in NL East) had their roughest week in a while as they went on a west coast swing. After taking the first two out in Arizona, they traveled to play the wild card leading San Francisco Giants with a possible playoff preview. If this was a preview, the Giants got the [...]
