Wild Card Philadelphia

Brandon Marsh, you are the man! #Ringthebell

What a gutsy outing from Jesús Luzardo. Didn’t have his best stuff, but danced out of trouble and got timely outs. Really encouraging. The offense is still the epitome of brutality. #Ringthebell

Jesús Luzardo gets out of the mess that Trea Turner made. Bases loaded and no outs after the error. Manny Machado: K Jackson Merrill: K (Looking) Nick Castellanos: Groundout. Well done, Zeus. #Ringthebell

Trea Turner is legitimately the worst guy around.

The Padres just swapped starters for tonight and tomorrows games. It will be Griffin Canning (RHP) tonight and Randy Vasquez tomorrow.

Game 1 in San Diego this evening. Jesús Luzardo vs. Randy Vasquez (RHP) Notable Phillies Stats vs. Randy Vasquez: Trea Turner: 1 for 3 Kyle Schwarber: 1 for 2 | 1 HR Bryce Harper: 2 for 3 Alec Bohm: 2 for 3 | 1 HR Brandon Marsh: 1 for 1 Bryson Stott: 1 for 3 Rafael Marchan: 2 for 2 Randy Vasquez only outing against the Phillies in June of 2024: 4.1 IP | 12 H | 6 ER Other notables: The Phillies were 47-24 entering that game. Trea Turner was batting .345 David Dahl started in left field. The Phillies are 9-5 in their last 14 games played at Petco Park. The classic “big game” in May. Let’s start the road trip off on the right foot. #Ringthebell

@ah_pod Dave still feels good about his club though

the phillies lost a series in which their starting pitchers threw 20.1 innings out of a possible 27, while allowing only 2 runs.

Phillies drop 2 out of 3. The pitching let up a total of 4 runs in the series, yet the offense was unable to capitalize. Cristopher Sanchez: 8 IP | 0 ER | 6 Ks Zach Wheeler: 6 IP | 0 ER | 6 Ks Andrew Painter: 6.1 IP | 2 ER Trea Turner is 0 for his last 13. His BA is down to .225 The Phillies were 1-17 with RISP this weekend. The offense will continue to be the thing that holds this team back. They are a group built to slug, except they just don’t slug. They move to a game under .500 about a 1/3 of the way through the 2026 campaign. Will be interesting to see how they respond during the west coast trip this week. #Ringthebell

BREAKING: Orion Kerkering just successfully fielded a dribbler in front of the mound and made a throw to 1st base. The PFPs are paying off. #Ringthebell

Phillies are 6-3 thus far through this stretch. Suffered the first series loss in the Don Mattingly Era earlier this week vs. the Cincinnati Reds. They look to get back on track this weekend against a pesky Guardians Group. Phils have Cristopher Sanchez and Zach Wheeler taking the ball this weekend. Taking 2 out of 3 is imperative. Let’s win a series. #Ringthebell

Alec Bohm. #Ringthebell

The Phillies most definitely have an Aaron Nola problem. Consistently does not give the team a chance to win baseball games. They are going to have a trade for a serviceable backend of the rotation arm. ERA is now over 6. #Ringthebell

Watching what just happened at Madison Square Garden makes me insanely infuriated that our basketball team in South Philadelphia is so far from resembling something similar to what the Knicks have going on. Jalen Brunson just entered a legitimate flow state for the last 10 minutes of the basketball game. Controlled every second of every offensive action. #NovaKnicks
