The Orioles’ terrible pitching has suddenly looked great the last couple of days.

Gee I wonder why?!

Bundy and Gausman have done wonders this year stats wise, it's just the offense isnt putting up any run support of any kind.

I wonder how big a free agent contract the best RF in the NL East will get this winter.

Hall of Famer Red Schoendienst dies at 95. He played on two World Series winning teams and managed another in 1967.

Chris Davis is headed for the worst season in MLB history....

I can't believe this hasn't been reported yet: Bryce Harper shaved his beard. Of course, the reason can't just be "because":

He hasn't even played RF very well this year so I don't know why the Yankees would sign him to play CF.

Giants’ closer Hunter Strickland is out 6-8 weeks after blowing his second straight save chance and breaking his hand by punching a door.

It’s too bad he’ll look like an idiot from this incident, because until now...he’s been an idiot.

Screenshot from Hunter Strickland's Wikipedia page. It'll get edited again soon I'm sure...

Welcome! I am a Phillies fan as well.
What's the reason you like two teams that are so far apart?

Do you follow the NFL as well? Possibly the TB Bucs and the Philly Eagles???

No just baseball

Phillies and Nationals are playing tonight. Just a game separates them in the standings.

 

[SteveBrickNJ]

Phillies won convincingly 12 to 2

Maybe the weirdest promotion I’ve seen...

I read the link and knew what it was going to be - that’s bizarre.

50 years ago today Bob Gibson pitched his 5th straight complete game shutout.

 

[Dead2009]

With Steve Pearce joining the Red Sox, he's officially played for the entire AL East. When's the last time that's happened?

 

[Lucky]

No pitcher has more than 2 complete games yet this season, and there have only been 24 in all so far. By this date in 1968, Juan Marichal had 16 complete games and Bob Gibson had 14.
