Posted on 25 Jun 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
No manager in Phillies history platooned his players like Gene Mauch. They called him the “Little General” because of his phenomenal attention to do detail. At times he'd single-handedly win a game by consistently being one step ahead of the opposing manager. There were also times where he overmanaged and cost his team games. During the historic 1964 collapse, Mauch panicked down ...

Cats Drop the Hammer on Als in final pre-season game
Posted on 24 Jun 2011 by Clint McFawn.
Don’t plan the parade just yet. Hamilton Ticats head coach Marcel Bellefeuille says, despite some encouraging signs, Wednesday’s 57-20 destruction of the Montreal Alouettes means little. “I want people to get excited about this team but not about this win or about the loss against Toronto,” Bellefeuille said. “It’s pre-season, you can read too much into those things.” Here’s wha...

Posted on 18 Jun 2011 by Rob Parness.
Coming out of spring practices the bright spot for the Ducks appeared to be an improved and athletic defense that was hungry to grab some of the spotlight away from the high-powered Oregon offense. However, just days following the spring game projected starting inside linebacker Kiko Alonso was arrested for trespassing during what appeared to be an attempted robbery.

Just Another Birthday, Cliff Lee Leads Phillies to 3-0 Win
Posted on 16 Jun 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
To the fans in my section chanting “Let's go Clifford,” remember, his name is Clifton! Less than a month ago, some Phillies fans started to question the Cliff Lee signing. After an abysmal performance against the Nationals where Lee allowed six earned runs over 5.1 innings, his ERA sat at 3.94. Clifton's been nothing short of sensational since. Over his last three starts, Lee's ...

Disgusting
Posted on 11 Jun 2011 by Brendan Sennott.
This will be my shortest post to date here in my early tenure at Pro Sports Blogging. I am going underground and will not return until next Friday June 17th. What I saw last night from the New York Yankees was disgusting. The Bombers got swept for the second time in a month by their blood rivals the Red Sox. They have no heart. They have no intensity. They have lousy fundamentals....

Missing: Braves offense!
Posted on 10 Jun 2011 by Marcus Young.
It may be time to tack up some “MISSING” fliers on neighborhood trees and on milk cartons around Turner Field like when pets run away. Or do they still mail out those sad “Have you seen me?” cards when people disappear? Because the Atlanta Braves offense is definitely missing in action. After dropping 2 of 3 to the lowly Mets last weekend (a team battling serious injur...

Marlins Net Back-to-Back Losses to Cubs
Posted on 21 May 2011 by Jon Melton.
With a chance this week to take series wins from two of the lower-echelon teams in the NL, the Fish floundered. The Marlins came out of back-to-back two game sets against the Mets and Cubs with only one win to show for it. The backdrop for the first two game set was Citi Field, a billion dollar latrine fittingly located in Flushing, NY. The opening game was “rain” delayed by more than an ho...

Roy Halladay Avoids Stretch of Infamy for the Philadelphia Phillies
Posted on 20 May 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
Before Roy Halladay’s first pitch of the game against Texas on Friday, Chris Wheeler summed it up perfectly; “He’s (Roy Halladay) pitched two straight complete game losses, that’s gotta stop.” The last pitcher to have three straight complete games without a win, Steve Carlton in 1973 The lineup has been in a slump, but the starting pitching has done its job. The Phillies entered ...
