2005-05-08T20:57:00.000-04:00

This week for the Philz was a rough one. They dropped the 4 game series against the Mets 1 game to 3 games. Brett Myers takes the cake with a huge win against the Mets. Bobby Abreu and Pat Burrell lead the offense. For the full story go to : click on "Da Philz" link to the left.

The weekend went well for the Philz. They take the 3 game series against the Cubs 2 games to 1 game. Right now the Phillies are in last place in the NL East and better start doing better.

Marlins Tag Wolf ... Again

2005-04-14T00:55:00.000-04:00

Randy Wolf, a supposed "beast on the hill", is 0-4 to the Marlins since 2003. Which brings me to my point of this article. The Philz have a problem on the mound. I feel that we need to due our best to get people in our bullpen that are monsters in the Majors. There is some great talent and some good promise in Jon Lieber and Gavin Floyd. We need pitchers to be consistent. I remember the days of '93 when we had Curt Schilling, Tommy Greene, Mitch Williams (I know what your all thinking.. but he was a beast in the 9th until that damn homerun) on the dirt hill. Those guys were unbelievable. If the Philz can get their act together on the mound, we will be a machine this season.

Philz have fallen to 4-5 with a 1-2 series againt Florida. We need these NL East wins bad. I am tired of the damn Marlins and Braves takin it year after year. It is early in the season. The Philz have a big weekend series comin up against the Braves at home. It is a big test so keep your eyes on the scoreboard when you get a chance.

Tuph Week but Solid Ending phor the Philz

2005-04-10T12:07:00.000-04:00

After starting that always hopeful undefeated season (just kidding) on Monday, the Philz drop the next two to Washington. Wednesday night was a crushing 7-3 loss. Worrel takes the loss but some brightness showed when Pat Burrell knocked one out of the park.
Thursady night was a close one, 5-4 Washington advantage. This game was 10 innings of the Philz leaving men on base at the end of the innings. Loss goes to Randy Cormier.
Friday against St. Louis was the same result, a loss delivered to Philadelphia: compliments of Ryan Madson. The Philz gave up 5 runs in the last 3 innings. That's Philadelphia sports for ya.

Now on a brighter note, on Saturday the Philz found some young talent in right hander Gavin Floyd. This young "Ace" retired 19 straight batters at one point in the ball game taking Philadelphia to a 10-4 win. "So what" you say, "19 batters, so he had a good day, big whoop". Well ladies and gents, tat 19 batters came from the most dominant line-up in the Major League. Edmonds, Walker, Pujols, Nunez, and Rolen are not names that come from the sad end of this kind of story, but Gavin Floyd had no problem showing them the way. So the win showed some good signs for the futre of ourt bullpen after all. The Philz (2-3) will have to pick it up now get us that penant.

Phirst Impressions Tell Alot

The beginning of the Charlie Manuel Era was a good one. Philadelphia can be a tough city to play for, coach for, or even cheer for; but Charlie Manuel came out against the Washington Nationals on Mon. April 4th and showed his new fan club what he will do. The Phillies stomped the Nationals debut with a 8-4 win. Another newly aquired asset just happened to make his Philadelphia debut worth watching was the old but still speedy centerfielder Kenny Lofton who hit a beautiful three-run homer in the fifth.

Philz Take Another Pre-Season Loss to The New York Monopoly ... I mean Yankees

2005-03-23T12:42:00.000-05:00

Jaret Wright (2-0 for the Stankees) was tossin' that stitch well Tuesday night. The Philz took a 5-1 loss and a shutout through 6 innings. Now I am a patient fan, that is what being a Philadelphia Sports fan will do to you, but I cannot stand losing to any New York teams (especially because the only reason is because they buy their talent. Hopefully we'll pick toward the home stretch of Pre-Season.

Games this week for Spring Training: Today: Philz vs. Astros

Philz Lose to Reigning Champs

2005-03-07T19:19:00.000-05:00

Ok Philz Phanz.... so we dropped our spring league game against the Reigning World Champion Boston Red Sox who are wicked good. But let's look at the bright side... we only lost 5-4, our ace (best pitcher for all you who don't follow baseball) Randy Wolf, pitched two scoreless innings, and center fielder Kenny Lofton had a nice little triple. So all in all I feel it was a good sign for these Philthies from the "City of Brotherly Love." And for those of you who missed the game, Boston turned a ridiculous triple play. Pretty cool to see.
