The Phillies Playoff Drought Has Ended (Newtown, Howard: stadium, town, lowest)

Who knows how it will end but this feels entirely different than 08-09 because it is so unexpected.

I listen to Franzke and LA for great broadcasting. Franzke's call of Harper's home run was Kalas-like.

"Bedlam at the Bank" will be as well known as "Miracle at the Meadowlands."

Didn't feel like creating a new thread but enjoyed watching tonight's game. And yeah, Braves fans throwing beer cans on the field won't make the news, though it would if it happened here. Lesson learned though; fake it until you make it because aside from both players' reactions, there was no evidence of catcher interference.

In a post game interview, Sean Murphy said he believes he touched J.T. Realmuto's bat on the back swing. My guess is that the bat hit his glove strings.

Not like it mattered though.

I can't lie as an ex-Pirate fan, I hope you can beat the Braves. Please do. Thanks. I'll cheer on you guys. Series tied. Lets get it done.

This forum is a good one. Go Philly's.

We had the Braves and the series in a stranglehold then we decided to give a clinic on poor hitting with runners on base, defense, relief pitching and base running.

Now that we've given them life, they're going to slaughter us.

This is the same team that blew a 2-1 World Series lead last year. They're fun and they're
likable, but they just can't get it done.

Three bad innings against a team that won 104 games playing for their lives at home and suddenly the team is chokers who can't get it done. LOL, Negadelphia at its best (worst).
