Just like that he was gone and I don’t like it. I’m fully aware the Phillies grabbed the most dominant right handed pitcher of the decade in the majors but something just doesn’t seem right. It wasn’t supposed to end like this.
The Phillies acquired Cliff Lee on July 29th and quickly it came to pass [...]

Chase Utley extended the life of the Phils in Game 5 of the World Series with a pair of homers to help support Cliff Lee’s pitching effort. The scorn of some earlier in the playoffs due to a lack of hitting and fielding mistakes, Utley is putting one of the best World Series shows of [...]

We’re about two hours away from Game 5 of the World Series and the pain from last night’s loss still hasn’t subsided. This pic courtesy of the700level.com sums it up perfectly.

Words cannot express my disappointment over Game 4 of the World Series. Brad Lidge…ugh. That hurt.

Granted, it’s only one game but still…what a game it was. Cliff Lee dominated the Yankees in a 6-1 win. The most impressive part of his performance was the considerable ease in which he did it with. As illustrated in this picture from the700level.com, it was simply child’s play for the 2008 Cy Young winner. [...]

Mission Possible begins for the Phillies tonight in the Bronx when they try to take down the mighty New York Yankees in the World Series. While either fanbase will be massively disappointed with defeat, the true losers are Cleveland Indians fans. The Indians managed to trade away two Cy Young winners in the last year [...]

Some 20 years later, the Braves tried [...]

Jimmy Rollins became just the third player in MLB postseason history to get a game-winning extra base hit with two outs. The Phillies are one game away from back to back World Series. However, the last win is always the toughest. Go Phils!!!
