Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 Continues Into Red October (2024 Edition)

[LegionOfDoom91]

Such a weird world where Harper walks & I’m happy with Bohm up next.

 

[Rebels57]

Again I say, the Phils are a f***ing WAGON

They seem to always have trouble getting that extra hit to bust the game open. Not this season. This squad is feeling themselves.

I can't believe that Bohm fly ball wasn't caught. Seemed to hang in the air forever

53 pitches in one half inning isn't usually that good btw

 

[Halladay]

Strahm allowed a run, not sure why he pitched 2 innings though.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

If you would have told me that Bohm would be leading the whole league in RBI’s, doubles and have a top 10 batting average through the 50 games of the season I wouldn’t have believed it. I would have been open to moving him after last year in the right deal. That shows why I’m no baseball GM

Thought the Bohm pop up was a for sure out. There's magic in the air this season. Just don't use it all up before October.

Bryce with a mammoth blast. Fun is fun!

 

[Halladay]

The Rangers are terrible, the Phillies are rolling though. Another series win and Wheeler tomorrow.

[Rebels57]

36-14

 

[Flybynite]

Another series win against an under .500 team

Spoiler

That they put under .500 by beating them

 

[DancingPanther]

This clown pointed to the sky like it was a fly ball. It went 428 feet. This is not the first time this has happened.

And who could forget

Would it be dumb to try out Bohm at LF? Sosa is crushing lefties and Marsh is pretty much only hitting off RHP so far

I thought there was a chance he could play LF when he was younger but I think that ship has sailed. I don't think he'd do great with tracking balls in the OF. He's also gotten considerably slower since he first came up. He's actually been a positive defender at third for the first time in his career (if you believe in fielding metrics this early in the season) so you probably don't want to mess with that either. Sosa would probably be a better candidate for it. They tried him in CF in the spring last year. I guess it didn't go well but SS's tend to figure stuff out in the field.

Looks like Whit is odd man out btw.

Who could have forseen that? I just wish some of us could have seen that coming

But (missing comma) what DID they do at the end?

*Le sigh*

Pouring one out for the editors out there who are given work to do.

 

[wankstifier]

Pham seems like a much better fit than Merrifield.

 

[trostol]

Shut up, Jon.

but that's what they are supposed to do...in years prior they'd be losing these games lol

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

@Magua's guys.

Wheeler imploding as he approaches the finish line.

You guys are getting excited about a sweep against a .471 team? Pathetic.

I’ll hang up and listen.
