Tuesday night’s win was one of the most non-Phillies, Phillies win my eyes have ever seen. That’s truly saying a lot given I said the exact same thing just three days ago about Sunday’s win. The sudden turn around of the Phils and the recent wave of doing the exact opposite of what they […]
When the Phillies signed Bryce Harper to a mega 13-year, $330 million contract in March of 2019, they expected him to step up in the clutch moments like he did on Sunday afternoon.

The night of April 29, 2022 was a pretty significant night in Philly sports: Embiid’s devastating orbital injury was revealed, the Eagles drafted Center Cameron Jurgens and Georgia Linebacker Nakobe Dean, and the Flyer’s completely forgettable season has come to a merciful end. So its easy to forget that on that same night the Phillies […]
“I fucking hate this place.” After three errors a and a few sarcastic cheers later, Alec Bohm found himself disgruntled with his current situation as a Phillie.After he sparked an eight inning comeback and gave an emotional apology post-game, Bohm has never been more connected to Philly sports fans. You see, Alec Bohm isn’t the […]

It took a long time, but Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association finally agreed on a new five year Collective Bargaining Agreement this week. It turns out this lengthy lockout only delayed the first week of the 2022 MLB regular season. And the series that were canceled are expected to be rescheduled so […]
