A little schooling for Kendrick in Phillies’ loss to Nationals

GameSetMatch — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 16:07:52 +0000

For the next 5 days, the pitch that Kyle Kendrick will try to avoid dwelling upon was a changeup. It is a pitch that has occupied a large chunk of the last year of his life, from his 2009 season at Triple A Lehigh Valley to his recent spring-training performance that propelled him back to the big leagues. But it is also a pitch that Kendrick sent floating over the plate in the fourth inning yesterday, resulting in a deafening, two-run homer by Willie Harris that served as a pivotal blow in the Phillies’ 6-5 loss to the Nationals.

The lesson for Kendrick: There are still plenty of lessons left to be learned, and that his staying power in the Phillies’ rotation will depend largely on the speed in which he does so.

The list of pitchers who struggled in their first starts of 2010 reads like a fantasy team: Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano (eight runs in 1 1/3 innings), Red Sox ace Josh Beckett (five runs in 4 2/3 innings), Yankees ace CC Sabathia (five runs in 5 1/3 innings).

But those pitchers also have proven their ability to adjust between starts, to both identify their kinks and massage them out. As Kendrick stood in the visitors’ clubhouse at Nationals Park, where the Phillies would depart with a 2-1 record, he did not sound like he would struggle with the first part. His problem, he said, was leaving too many pitches up and over the plate, a sentiment that manager Charlie Manuel had expressed only minutes earlier.

For Phillies starter Lee, pressure is all relative

GameSetMatch — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 15:37:52 +0000

Pressure? Cliff Lee has seen pressure, and starting Game 1 of the National League Division Series today for the Phillies isn’t it.

Pressure for Lee came eight years ago as he watched Jaxon, his 4-month-old son, hooked up to an IV, with tubes dangling everywhere, not knowing if he was going to survive.

Lee and his wife, Kristen, had just heard the devastating diagnosis of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). They were told Jaxon had about a 30 percent chance to live.

Four months later, those chances diminished further when Jaxon suffered a relapse. He had a growth behind his eye that required radiation. He needed a stem cell blood transplant from a donated umbilical cord.

Once again, Phillies to host Rockies in National League playoffs

GameSetMatch — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 19:24:29 +0000

Two years ago, the Colorado Rockies made the postseason on the strength of a quick and powerful late-season burst of success.

They won 14 of their final 15 games, including a dramatic, one-game playoff – in which they needed a three-run rally in the bottom of the 13th inning – to claim the National League wild card.

The Rockies then won seven straight postseason games to make the World Series, where their scorched-earth run ran out of fuel and they were swept by Boston.

The Phillies were one of the teams that got burned by the streaking Rockies in 2007. Colorado swept the Phils in three straight in the NL division series that year. It was the Phils’ first trip to the postseason in 14 years and it was over in about the time it takes the Domino’s guy to deliver a pepperoni pizza to your door. That’s what happens when you hit .172 (16 for 93) in three games.

No cinch to clinch, but Phils move closer

GameSetMatch — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 17:59:31 +0000

Pedro Feliz hit a grand slam, J.A. Happ pitched effectively into the sixth inning and the Philadelphia Phillies moved closer toward clinching their third straight NL East title with a 7-4 victory over the Houston Astros on Tuesday night.

The defending World Series champions reduced their magic number for winning the division to two, pending the outcome of the Atlanta-Florida game. The Braves entered the night four games behind the Phillies.

Happ (12-4) allowed four runs — three earned — and nine hits in 5 2-3 innings, striking out six. He’s the first rookie to win 12 games for Philadelphia since Jim Owens in 1959.

Jayson Werth hit a two-run homer and Philadelphia’s injury-plagued bullpen tossed 3 1-3 scoreless innings. Jamie Moyer got four outs and Ryan Madson pitched the last two innings for his 10th save in 16 chances. He allowed two hits in the ninth, but he struck out Carlos Lee on a 96 mph fastball and got Hunter Pence looking to end it.
