There were parents at the game that were getting a little out of hand. I don't know if they may have had a hand in it. The ones that were being rowdy weren't parents for our team but team. it seems kinda funny to me...but what do I know.
Thank you for liking my profile pic. I have been a Phillies fan ever since I can remember as well as The Eagles and The Flyers and Pens. I'm shocked how well they've been playing this season. I'm hoping we can keep it up. Have you made it to CBP yet this season? I've made it to three games so far.
To show how incredibly ancient I am:
I went to a few Phillies games at Veterans' Stadium while in college.
Saw Game 2 of the 1980 WS.
Pete Rose on first, Trillo and Bowa the DP combo, the legendary Mike Schmidt, WS MVP, on third. Bob Boone (father of Aaron Boone) behind the plate, perpetual Gold Glove winner Maddux in CF.
Lefty Carlton, the greatest Phillies pitcher ever, got the win. Tug McGraw (father of singer Tim McGraw) got the save.
The other team (KC) had George Brett on third.
I don't think there has ever been a series played in the history of baseball with two better third base men.
Havent made it to CBP this year yet. Im not really a crowds type guy. I like to relax in my own house and watch games. They are doing very well, I wasn't expecting it either.
The young guys have really played well do far. Santana is finally hitting like the guy we signed for big money. Herrera has done well being more patient. Franco has disciplined himself at the plate as well.
Im still worried that the pitchers...besides Arrieta and Nola...are going to fizzle out.
Phils need one more big bat in free agency this coming year and one more proven starter before I think they are real contenders.
I worry about the young pitching too, Core. we need some help for either the middle or back of the rotation. I think our bullpen will be okay. I've been impressed so far with Arrieta, Nola, Santana, Herrera and the resurgence of Franco.
I agree we need another big bat or two in that line up. Do you think we'll go after one of the big guys on the top of the free agency market in a trade like the guy from Baltimore?
