Well September is the time to make a run if the Phillies are going to make one this year. It is clear that this team has a hunger. They swept the all four games from the Mets and picked up 6 victories this week. Great Job.

Phils come back, win 8-7

June 29th, 2007 . by Go Phils

The Phillies can thank Jimmy Rollins for the comeback win. He tied the game in the bottom of the 8th  and won the game with a walk off rbi in the bottom of the 11th. Despite the driving rain the fireworks did go off at the game around 10:30 p.m. The Phillies start a 3 game set with the division leading Mets next. They are 3 behind.

Phils take series from Cards

June 25th, 2007 . by Go Phils

The series clincher is always the hardest to win but the Phils pulled it out. Behind Cole Hamels, a rain delay and clutch 8th inning hitting by Victorino the Phillies pulled out the 3rd game of this series 5-1. The bad news is that Lieber will also be put on the DL for a while but this may be an opportunity that forces the Phillies to go with more youthful pitching. The ageless wonder Moyer got the other victory in this series and the best offensive performer in the entire series had to be all the big guns in the Phillies lineup: Utley, Rollins, and Howard.. They all took turns stepping up.
