With 8 games to go, the NL wild-card race is a 3-way tie between the Cubs, Phillies and Padres

With the MLB regular season set to end next weekend, the NL playoff race has settled, in some ways at least. The division winners are all clear. The Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers have each clinched their respective crowns and the Atlanta Braves could join them as soon as Sunday. The playoff field overall is also looking complete, as the only team still trying to make up a gap is the Arizona Diamondbacks, who are now 4.5 games out and need a miracle. That doesn’t mean there isn’t so...

Get a Superhero Lunch Box before Padres-Marlins this Sunday! The Cubs had lost in Cincinnati. The Phillies had lost to the Mets. The Yankees hung a five-spot on the Diamondback...

Urquidy Shines in Phils Debut, Kerkering Struggles Continue

NEW YORK — Nobody knows what would have happened if Jesús Luzardo had started on Friday night at Citi Field, just like nobody knows what would have happened if he had started last Saturday at Truist Park. The Phillies would’ve liked their chances, though. Come see the Phillies face the Brewers & Rays from Sept. 22-27! Even if Luzardo wasn’t on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his left shoulder, the Phillies’ offense would have needed to score. And Orion Kerkering would have needed ...

Why did Brandon Marsh pinch hit for Edmundo Sosa in the ninth?

NEW YORK — Don Mattingly isn’t quite ready to give Edmundo Sosa more at-bats, but he’s making a case to be in the lineup a little more often. The Phillies utility man went 3-for-3 with a home run and was a triple short of the cycle in a 6-3 loss on Friday night against the […]

Braves clinch postseason bid with three homers in win over Astros

The Braves hit three more two-run homers and Tyler Mahle was excellent once again as Atlanta took down the Houston Astros, 6-2, and clinched a playoff bid in the National League. The Phillies also lost on Friday night, so the magic number for the division sits at three. The bats were quiet in the early […]

The Mets slug their way over the Phillies behind Zac Thornton

In a fairly lethargic game, the Mets defeated the Phillies 6-3. Zac Thornton started for the Mets, and hit Kyle Schwarber with a pitch, putting the first runner of the game on first base. But Thornton buckled down, striking out Treat Turner and Bryce Harper and then inducing a ground out from Luis Arraez. The […]

Nopener: Mets 6, Phillies 3

Two three-run innings surrendered by their problematic bullpen doomed the Philadelphia Phillies (85-69) in a 6-3 loss to the New York Mets (70-84) on Friday night. Tim Mayza opened the game with a lead-off double to Francisco Lindor. He would get one out before leaving with an 0-1 deficit and the bases loaded. New recruit, […]

Bowlan Avoids IL to Strengthen Phillies Bullpen for October

NEW YORK — Phillies reliever Jonathan Bowlan has a “mild” right groin strain, but he will not be placed on the 15-day injured list. There is a reason for that: If Bowlan is placed on the injured list, he would be ineligible to pitch in the NL Wild Card Series. Phillies interim manager Don Mattingly said on Friday afternoon at Citi Field that the team thinks Bowlan’s strain is manageable and that he could be back by Game 1 on Sept. 29. Come see the Phillies face the Brewers & Rays from Sept. 22...
