On Wednesday night, the Phils fell to the Rockies 7-2 at home, their fifth straight loss.

During the 7th inning, the Phanatic tried comforting a baby. It didn’t work.

“You gotta question the parenting skills here,” John Kruk joked on the TV broadcast.

The Phillies are now 4-20 in their last 24 games, falling to an MLB worst 15-29 on the season.
