Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 (2023 Edition)

[Taijuan Fedotov]

Always interesting when this guy pitches.

 

[Halladay]

Strahm is coming in.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Topper ain’t playing around after yesterday

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

I mean, it's f***ing over!!!! Just let it end!!!

 

[Magua]

Up 6-1 with 2 outs in the 9th and wondering how they’ll lose is how you know you’re a true Philadelphia sports fan.

[Magua]

Strahm check swing last out again. This is the formula.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

There’s really assholes shooting off fireworks around my house.

PLAY THE SONG

Phillies 3 Wins
Thomson/AZ 2 Wins

 

[Gregor Samsa]

O, ye of little faith, for the doom-sayers after yesterday’s game. A statement game. Up 3-2 in the series with both games in Philadelphia. Nola game 6. Suárez game 7 (if needed). Looking like they’ll be back in the WS again.

Good to see Harper back to playoff Harper. Schwarber is a monster right now. Stott had a good game on both sides. Wheeler was an ace

Couldn’t ask for much more. Somehow this wasn’t that stressful of a game

Wheeler is a stud. Thank you Klentak.

 

[DancingPanther]

Turned the game on and the ball went out. Taking full credit.

I told you you're not an idiot, jojo

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Wheeler is a stud. Thank you Klentak.

We’re rapidly approaching best Philadelphia FA signing ever territory.

We’re rapidly approaching best Philadelphia FA signing ever territory.

Harper

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Harper

He’ll pass him eventually based on peak years left of course.

But no, not for me right now.

 

[FLYguy3911]

We’re rapidly approaching best Philadelphia FA signing ever territory.

Thought of as an overpay at the time too.

 

[Taijuan Fedotov]

Watching Wheeler this postseason brings back memories of Cliff Lee and Roy Halladay. '08 Hamels too.

 

[Magua]

Wheeler was not healthy deeper into last year’s playoffs. A healthy Wheeler peaking at the right time is a game changer. This entire starting staff has been a bunch of beauts.

We’re rapidly approaching best Philadelphia FA signing ever territory.

He was called a good #2 pitcher 2 weeks ago.

 

[Sombastate]

Wheeler and Harper are probably the best free agent signings ever for the Phillies in my life.

 

[Kermit the Prog]

You people have short memories. Does no one remember Danny Tartabull or Gregg Jeffries? David Bell? Talk about A-Level signings.

Recency bias, I suppose.

 

[Flybynite]

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Wheeler has a 19.6 WAR in his four seasons with the Phillies. He had a 9.1 WAR in five years with the Mets before that.

 

[Halladay]

What a difference 24 hours makes. Finish this Monday Aaron.
