    NL East team for the better game time zone.

    Ugh I hope we don’t face another NL East team. Astros are cursed against NL East teams with low wins but got hot at the right time.

    and this is where replay is so tough is baseball. You can’t have replay challenges to “assist” with getting the call right to only let those “judgement” calls go. It’s the same as a call at first. What the ump thought he saw vs what actually occurred. Maybe you limit it to 7th inning or later to not bog the game down but that was horrible.

    Idk why, but Bohm bothers me. Maybe it's the hair.

    Phillies on the ropes now. Needed to win that Nola start.

    Honest question. How are the Phillies on the ropes now being up in the series?

    Great call. Profar went slighty over on his “check swing”

    I wonder whether the Phillies and Padres offenses are really HOT or are they facing sub par pitching?

    Great question. Their momentum might make them a very scary team if they keep rolling.

    Phillies are scary, their offense won't stop. Gotta pray that the Padres knock them out.

    Philly looks like a team of destiny.

    logic tells me that we will smash these teams bullpens.

    but this is baseball

    We need to smash the Yankees in at least one game. We need base hits, runners, rallies... everything the Phillies are getting to add to our confidence.

    The Astros NL East curse might continue this year in the World Series :(

    Obviously both Houston and Philadelphia still has to advance but if they do, hopefully Neris has some tips on the Phillies batters.

    Phillies haven't played against a pitching staff like the Astros. Great pitching usually beats great hitting.
