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 [...]

So at this point, the Phillies have won four games since trading for Cliff Lee, and former Indians have contributed highly to three of them. Last night, Ben Francisco hit a solo shot in the twelth inning off the Cubs’ Kevin Gregg which led to a 4-3 win for the Philadelphia Phillies to break a [...]

Jonathon Sanchez has been trying to find the same stuff he had when he threw a no hitter a few weeks back. He didn’t find that exact stuff on Thursday against the Phillies, but he was solid. Sanchez(4-9) went 5.2 innings only giving up two runs on three hits, and struck out seven. Pablo Sandoval [...]

Why wouldn’t every single player on the Phillies be all smiles right now? The Phillies can’t seem to lose, and last night they won yet another game, by the score of 4-3. The Phillies also seem to be able to spread out the nightly heroes, last night could be considerd Shane Victorino. Victorino went 3-5 [...]

The Philadelphia Phillies were looking to have another successful series and take two out of three games from the formerly Central division leading St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday.

Nieve (3-3) pitched decently but lost his third straight outing following a 3-0 start with New York. He gave up three runs and eight hits in six innings. Following a 28-21 start, the Mets have gone 12-24 since May and dropped five games under .500 for the first time since an 0-5 start in 2005 [...]
