After two games that couldn’t be more different than each other, the Dodgers look to take the second series of the second half in Philadelphia. Monday’s game was a slugfest, and Tuesday’s game was a pitching duel that ended in a huge base running mistaken double play by the Phillies runners. Wednesday’s game could bring […]
The Phillies blew their game against the Dodgers on Tuesday night in what could end up being the definitive dumbass loss of the MLB season. Here’s how it went, in short: Bottom of the ninth, Phillies down one, one out, man on second (J.T. Realmuto) and third (Justin Crawford, pinch running for Alec Bohm). Brandon […]

I was looking through the Crossing Broad archives to see what happened 5, 10, and 15 years ago this week. It’s usually a slow sports period, late July, but MLB trade deadline rumors were cooking, and it happens to be the 15th anniversary of a curious turn of events. The Phillies were in the middle […]

The Phillies were 90 feet away from forcing extra innings against the Dodgers. Instead, a chopper to Max Muncy led to a 5-2-6-4 double play to end the game (video link from the Dodgers on X). 1. Abrams hits two more HRs Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams is enjoying his time in Sacramento and Colorado. Abrams […]
The Philadelphia Phillies' ninth-inning rally against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night came up short thanks in part to a baserunning blunder by J.T. Realmuto that saw him get thrown out at second when he could have easily taken third base.
J.T. Realmuto took responsibility after a costly baserunning mistake helped the Los Angeles Dodgers complete a chaotic game‑ending double play in the Philadelphia Phillies’ matchup. The Philadelphia Phillies saw a golden opportunity slip away Tuesday night after a chaotic baserunning mistake by J.T. Realmuto helped seal a 2-1 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers at Citizens Bank Park. The bizarre sequence ended with a game-ending 5-2-6-4 double play , extending another tightly contested chapter in ...
Reason #1,981 why I love baseball – Trea Turner has a horrendous night in the field on Monday, then comes back and makes several spectacular plays in the field on Tuesday. You simply cannot explain this game. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
PHILADELPHIA — There’s that old adage in baseball about when you thought you’ve seen everything. But this is the Phillies […]
We all remember October. Kerk on the mound in Los Angeles. The Throw. We remember. While that was certainly laden with more pressure than a regular season game on July 21st, the Phillies decided to even up this current three-game series against the Dodgers by taking part in another humiliating loss to them, this time […]

The Philadelphia Phillies (56-46) squandered another dominant outing by Zack Wheeler and a promising walk-off situation with a befuddling baserunning blunder to allow the Los Angeles Dodgers (64-38) to even the three-game set in a 2-1 loss. Wheeler made one crucial mistake in the fourth inning, a cutter out over the plate that Max Muncy […]
The Philadelphia Phillies need a strong right-handed bat in the outfield, and San Francisco Giants star Heliot Ramos has emerged as a possible target.
Here are the lineups for game two against the Dodgers. Let’s discuss! For the Phillies: For the Dodgers:
According to Susan Slusser of The San Francisco Chronicle, the Phillies had a scout present for Monday night’s Kansas City […]
The Dodgers conclude the second stop on their three-city road trip on Wednesday night, taking on the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. Eric Lauer starts for the Dodgers, who have won all seven games in which he’s pitched for them. Aaron Nola starts for the Phillies.. Wednesday game info
PHILADELPHIA — I thought I would be miserable going to this game, watching two teams I hate (the Phillies and the Dodgers) ride high on their own egos amid overpriced concessions that jam a “ph” everywhere an “f” should be. I did it only so that I would finally get to see Shohei Ohtani play in person. But where was the phantastic two-way player, six-time all-star, and four-time MVP? Certainly not in the City of Brotherly Love. Whatever phacsimile was at the plate went 0-for-4 with two strikeou...
In litigating the Phillies Karen 2.0 situation of Monday night, I’ve come across some comments accusing Eagles jersey guy of being a “wrong game dickhead” – I’m not sure when or where “wrong game dickhead” began. It’s always been something that people have talked about and thought about, the concept of going to a sporting […]

The Giants are clear sellers heading into the trade deadline, and contenders are sending scouts to check out the club’s potential trade chips. Outfielder Heliot Ramos and utilityman Casey Schmitt are among the bats being scouted by opposing teams, per Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. Slusser mentions the Phillies and Mariners as teams […]
The 2026 season is an example of similar yet diverging paths in regard to the Phillies and the Mets. One team mostly brought back all of its regulars while the other did a dramatic offseason overhaul. One team thought they signed a free agent only for the other to swoop in at the last moment […]
The Phillies beat the Dodgers 10-7 on Monday night, but the biggest story of the evening didn’t happen on the field – it happened in the outfield stands, where two guys argued over who was the rightful owner of a home run ball: Many online are pointing out the similarities between this wild exchange and […]

Who knows how Trea Turner got out of bed this morning and into work but he probably didn’t anticipate having one of the most chaotic nights to remember for a position player. His three hits, two of them being out of the park, five runs driven in, four misplays that ended up costing them a […]
Philly will need to get aggressive at the trade deadline to overtake their long-time nemesis in the postseason.
