Rise and Phight: 4/17/2023

After Saturday’s game, I was done with the Phillies.

Then on Sunday they called and said, “We’re sorry. Look at how awesome we can play. Give us another chance.”

And like the sucker I am, I keep taking them back, even though I know they’re just going to break my heart again and again.

But how about Bryson Stott? After tying the franchise season-starting hit streak record (16 games, and he’s sitting pretty with 27 hits for the season), he needs a cool nickname on par with Willie ‘Puddin Head’ Jones. ‘Jell-O Head’ sounds like an insult.
