It is already Monday and yet Philadelphia is still brimming with Phillies fans. Friday’s parade was an absolute explosion of millions of people dressed in various red and white, yet many did not have their hands on the some Philadelphia Phillies World Series Apparel. One of my favorite pieces is the Majestic Men’s MLB World Series 08 Champs Roster T shirt, which has every member on the team right on the back. All red with a design of Citizens Bank Park on the front and back (with World Series Champions on the chest), this is a great T-shirt to wear under a hoody, or over a long sleeve shirt for those colder days. The ESPN Shop currently has this T as well as various hoody’s, T-shirts, hats, and various other pieces of World Series apparel and memorabilia. If you are a Phillies fan, you need to get your hands on this type of celebratory apparel as it makes for a great gift idea!

Due to an unprecedented (yet foreseeable) weather condition, the Philadelphia Phillies World Series Game 5 was postponed after only 5 and a half innings. Initially the Phills looked great with a two run lead that is until some wet follies by Jimmy Rollins allowed the Rays some base runners in scoring position. It was only after the game was tied at 2 did the umpires decide conditions were too extreme to have fair game play. After 403 World Series games played (started since 1903), this was the first game ever in history to be called for a rain delay. It just so happens to be a situation where the Philadelphia Phillies could have clinched, done it at home, and in exactly 5 games, with ace pitcher Cole Hamels on the mound. I am not a superstitious person, but I believe the curse of Billy Pen is real, and in full force. Meanwhile commissioner of baseball Bud Selig was going to resume the game tonight, however from the looks of it outside I just don’t see how that is going to be possible. Another tremendously sad day for Philadelphia and their sports teams, if you still want to show a little bit of Phillies love, check out some great Phillies apparel (and other official MLB gear) at the ESPN Shop. Hopefully one of those Phillies fleece hoodies will warm you up after last night’s debacle. This situation is truly beyond belief.

In almost a clean sweep, the Philadelphia Phillies may just be entering into the history books tonight by winning their first championship since 1980. After a solid 10-2 victory last night it seems that Ryan Howard has officially gotten the monkey off his back by hitting 2 homeruns for 5 RBI’s, and even pitcher Joe Blanton went yard for his first career homerun. With the strangle hold over Tampa Bay, the Philadelphia Phillies look like they will be winning the World Series in game 5 (as I predicted during the NLDS), and is looking to ace pitcher Cole Hamels to shut the door. With Hamels on the mound followed by a potential lethal combination of Madson and Lidge, it seems like this World Series is all but over! If you were looking to get some great team apparel, I would either look to the ESPN Shop or Dicks Sporting Goods for some cool weather Phillies gear. Of course you may want to wait an extra day so you can by some Phillies apparel with WORLD CHAMPIONS written across the chest!

In a beautiful victory last night, the Philadelphia Phillies are now the National League Champions! Beating out the Dodgers 5-1 (4-1 in the series overall), it was none other than J-Roll who led the game off with a solo shot in right center field on a 3-2 count. Can we say bye-bye Fastball? This was only the first of many hits for the Phill’s, and with the aid of star pitcher Cole Hamels, the team was able to control the game from the very first at bat. Now for the first time in 15 long years, the Philadelphia Phillies get to play in the World Series, and will most likely be playing the Tampa Bay Rays for the coveted World Series Ring. Looks to me like Charlie Manuel has got this team well greased, prepped, and ready to look towards their next and final 7 game series starting this upcoming Wednesday! If you want to support your Philly team, check out the great cool weather Phillies MLB sports apparel at the Espn shop.

Despite what looked to be a potential rain out/rain delay, the Philadelphia Phillies have yesterday won their first post-season game in 15 years. Cole Hamels had a spectacular game, as he had 9 strikeouts, and allowed only 2 hits within 8 shutout innings. Unquestionably a left-handed pitching threat, it was actually not even until the 5th when a Brewer was even able to touch first base. To finish the eventual 3-1 victory, ace closer Brad Lidge replaced Hamels, and put the Brewers on ice for the rest of the night. Scoring their only 3 runs during the 3rd, the Phillies stood behind Hamels by putting up a defensive wall (led by Chase Utley), and kept control of game 1 from start to finish. Game 2 of the NLDS against the Brewers is scheduled for today 6pm EST at Citizens Bank Park, where the Phillies plan on making this a 2-0 series. If you are looking to support the Philadelphia Phillies on their run at the World Series (yes they do look good enough), check out some great Phillies apparel at the ESPN Zone.

As the pinstripes get ready to take the field today in their first post-season game, Phillies Pitcher Cole Hamels will be the one on the mound pulling the trigger. The Phillies playoff game against the Brewers is scheduled to start at 3pm E.S.T and will be luckily be played at gold old Citizens Bank Park for some solid home field advantage. As one of the MLB’s most feared left-handed pitchers, Cole Hamels had a surprisingly bad NLDS start last October (giving up 3 runs) as they lost to the Rockies under his pitching. This year however is a different story. Hamels at only 24 now has a little post season experience under his belt, and I believe we can expect to see some great things from him today. The ma after all does throw a lot of strikes out there. Oddly, the Philadelphia Phillies have a hard time scoring when Cole Hamels is on the mound. I am not sure exactly why this relationship has been occurring throughout this past season, but I do know you can’t win an NLDS game without hitting in some runs.

I have been saying it since the beginning of the season, because I knew deep down that the Phillies would be playing in October. Now the Phillies NL East Champions are playoff bound and looking towards the Brewers on Wednesday as their first game of the National League Division Series. Finishing the regular season off with 48 home runs and almost 3 times as many RBI’s (144 to be exact), Ryan Howard is one of MLB’s biggest threats and should undoubtedly be considered for this years MVP. Unfortunately for us friends of the Phillies, the MVP will probably go to the Cardinals’ Albert Pujols (avg 357) despite having more then 10 less homers and close to 30 less RBI’s. What can I say, Phillies fans can’t have it all in terms of awards and stats, but what we can get our hands on in officially licensed MLB apparel. Especially now that you know for a fact that the Phillies will be playing in the cool weather, you are going to need a Philadelphia Phillies Frost Fleece to keep warm during the night games. This flashy frost fleece is a long sleeve high collar piece of Phillies apparel that has their signature blue color and a Phillies chest emblem. It is anti pill, and has side zip pockets for extra hand warmth and storage. This is a perfect piece of fightin’ Phills MLB apparel to see them through the post season.

I just don’t know why year after the year the Phillies need to make me so anxious. Yet again the race for the playoff spot in the NL East is going to go down to the last weekend of game play, and the Phills are now only 1 game up. 1 week ago the Phillies had a commanding 3.5 game lead over the Mets and just like that the red pin stripes are just holding on to the play off spot. This weekend the Phills have a series against the Washington Nationals, who at this point at their failed season could be nothing more then a spoiler for the Philadelphia team. The MLB NL East Standings (as of this afternoon) goes: Phillies 89-70, Mets, 88-71, Marlins 82-76, and well it doesn’t even much matter about the Braves or the Nationals. I am also pleased to announce that the Yankees will not be making the playoffs this year, so Boo Hoo for all the N.Y fans. What the Phillies need right now is to take one game at a time and win, win, win as much as possible. Regardless of what team you are routing for, show some support with some great MLB apparel.

So the Phillies lost 3-2 against the Braves last night, only have the Mets also beat the Cubs 6-2. This brings the Phillies lead in the N.L East to only 1.5 games with only a handful left to play. Lucky for Philly fans, the Mets still need to finish their series against the hard hitting Cubs, which has already resulted in one Mets loss. If the Phillies do get to the playoffs, I say vote Ryan Howard as MVP, and even support his nomination to receive the Hank Aaron award. Currently with 46 home runs and 142 RBI’s, Howard is an absolute threat regardless of what is being thrown at him. With weight and raw power the man has a huge kill zone over the plate, and can sail a ball deep in opposite field, even at a pitchers stadium. If you a fightin Phill’s fan, you should check out the great assortment of official Phillies MLB apparel at the ESPN Shop. From hats, to long sleeve shirts, hoodies (for those cooler post season games), and authentic mlb jerseys, the ESPN Shop has it all for the true pinstripe fan.

Well the fightin’ Phills have gone to win another one last night over the Braves at a nice score of 6-1. Pitcher J.A Happ won his first major league game to give the team their 6th straight win, while Ryan Howard hit in his 137 RBI this season. Still hanging onto the first place spot in the NL East, the Phillies have one more game against the Braves before they move onto the Marlins in the next Series. If you are a Phillies fan like me, you should really buy a Phillies Cool Base Jacket. This is a quarter zip 100% polyester rip-stop jacket that includes the Phillies name on the front, and alternating red and blue design throughout. Featuring Cool Base technology, this MLB jacket will keep your temperature (and moisture level) controlled in both warm and cool temperatures and includes a polyester lining to help wick away any sweat of your skin. This piece of Phillies apparel is ideal for any weather, and will really come in handy for all those cooler post season games the Phillies are going to be playing!
