The 2018 Phillies are 99 games into the season and tied for first place. If you’re like me, this is a huge, but incredibly exciting shock. Almost everyone thought the team would play better this year, but playing meaningful games heading into August? Maybe in our wildest dreams we thought that might happen for the second wild card berth, but for first place? No one predicted this.
Baseball is back in Philly. There’s no denying it.
However, listening to the four of you as color commentators during Phillies broadcasts, it really doesn’t seem like you’re watching a good team at all.
