Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Ryan Howard had another awesome display of power, clubbing a pair of homers, as the Philadelphia Phillies held off Atlanta, 4-2, at a soggy Citizens Bank Park. Howard, who had a solo homer in the second inning and a two-run shot in the fourth, lifted his total to 37 long balls this season. Howard, who also added a double in the eighth inning, is hitting .339 with 11 homers and 29 RBI over his last 15 contests. Ryan Madson, celebrating his 29th birthday, worke

(Sports Network) - The ninth inning has given the Philadelphia Phillies problems all year. Luckily, Ryan Howard was around to bail them out last night. Despite having blown two ninth-inning leads so far in this three-game set, Philadelphia and red-hot rookie J.A. Happ shoot for a series win over the Pittsburgh Pirates tonight at PNC Park. The Phillies have blown 18 saves as a team this year, including a league-high nine by Brad Lidge, who was a perfect 48-for-48 in save chances including the pl

Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - Ryan Howard hit a three-run homer in the 10th inning, as the National League East-leading Philadelphia Phillies prevailed after blowing a one-run lead in the ninth and got by the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-1, in the second of a three-game set at PNC Park. Chase Utley hit a solo homer, his 27th of the season for the Phillies, who recovered after losing a 6-4 decision to Pittsburgh on Andrew McCutchen's two- run homer in the ninth inning on Tuesday.

First-place Phils take roll into Pittsburgh Tue Aug 25 10:53:55 2009 EST
(Sports Network) - While Cliff Lee has dominated the National League since being acquired by the Philadelphia Phillies, teammate Joe Blanton has quietly put together an impressive stretch of his own. Blanton takes the hill tonight for Philadelphia in the opener of a three-game series versus the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park. The Phillies' big midseason trade acquisition last year, Blanton is 4-3 with a 2.30 earned run average over his last 10 starts and has lowered his season ERA from 5.28 to

Mets try to rebound in matinee with Lee, Phils Mon Aug 24 10:29:25 2009 EST
(Sports Network) - The New York Mets could use a long outing of Bobby Parnell in today's finale of a four-game set with the Philadelphia Phillies at Citi Field. With Philadelphia set to send out Cliff Lee, its bullpen might not even need to show up. Lee aims to win his eighth straight start this afternoon, and fifth in a row since joining the Phillies in a late July trade, and give his new ballclub a series win over its bitter rivals. The reigning American League Cy Young Award winner is 4-0 wi
Phils put Dobbs on DL, recall Cairo Sun Aug 23 13:53:22 2009 EST
Flushing, NY (Sports Network) - Philadelphia Phillies utilityman Greg Dobbs was put on the 15-day disabled list Sunday with a strained right calf.

While Dobbs heads to the DL, the Phillies recalled infielder Miguel Cairo from Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The 35-year-old veteran began the season on the Phill

(Sports Network) - The New York Mets' deficit in the National League East standings may be insurmountable, but don't tell that to the boys from Queens. One night after a tight and fiery battle with the Philadelphia Phillies, and on the same night that the Mets will reunite their 1969 World Series club, the teams will resume a four-game series at Citi Field. Though the Mets trail the first-place Phillies, the defending World Champions who have won the last two division titles, by 13 1/2 games, t
Phils, Mets renew rivalry at Citi Field Fri Aug 21 10:44:32 2009 EST
(Sports Network) - Needless to say, there won't be as much at stake this time around when the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets get together. Nevertheless, the two National League East rivals begin a four-game series tonight at Citi Field. These two clubs have developed a bitter rivalry over the past two seasons, with the Phillies twice rallying late in the season to overtake the Mets for the NL East crown. Philadelphia, of course, went on to win the World Series in 2008, while New York m
