Philadelphia Phillies sweep Dodgers to establish themselves as MLB's best I The Phillies Show S1E33

The Phillies entered the week believing they are the best team in baseball. Their sweep of the Dodgers at Citizens Bank Park only reaffirmed those beliefs.
“We don’t care who’s coming,” Johan Rojas said. “We don’t care who we are playing. We’re just going to beat them.”
So many good things happened this week against L.A. Trea Turner continued to swing a hot bat, drawing comparisons to Jimmy Rollins’ 2007 NL MVP season. Phillies pitchers held Shohei Ohtani to three singles, striking him out in a few big spots. Cristopher Sánchez rebounded in a big way on Wednesday. Rojas made a fantastic catch in left-center field on Thursday night.
Ruben, Jim and Todd dig into it all.
They start the show by talking about a shocking confession Ruben made on the 94 WIP Morning Show on Thursday.
Did he really call into WIP using a fake voice?
It sparked a conversation about wacky press box hijinks.

Best Phillies podcast by Phillies lifers. Fantastic content each week. Audience will keep growing, keep it up fellas.

[@grs177]

I totally agree. This one is the best. I do enjoy the one with Ricky Bo and Corey but it’s becoming more annoying with that Spencer guy. He’s terrible.

[@ThePhilliesShow]

Thank you. We're happy you enjoy the show. Spread the word!

[@Betty-Boop809]

You guys are a great listen. I really enjoy hearing your baseball perspectives, along with your inside baseball stories, always a fun listen.

[@ThePhilliesShow]

We appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching!

[@user-ci8os7nq3n]

Really enjoying your stories

[@ThePhilliesShow]

Thank you! We'll try to keep them coming.

As I said before, this is my favorite thing to watch on youtube. You guys are superb. Thanks. My wife has a question for you, Todd. Are those real baseball cards on the wall behind you, or is it wallpaper?

[@ThePhilliesShow]

Those are real baseball cards! All those `80 cards that were supposed to make Todd rich have been glued to the wood paneling in the office in his basement. Thank you for watching the show. We apprecie it!

Love you guys. I'm a huge Phillies fan here in Australia. Watching everyday. However, I gotta say that Aussie accent was good but it did sounded pretty suspect to me. Still, not bad....maybe 6/10. That's a great score as most Americans can't do an aussie accent at all. Let's go Phils '24!

[@ThePhilliesShow]

Ha, Todd will take a 6 out of 10. He acknowledges that it's pretty hacky. :)

[@ChipsNCellos]

It's been great to see Marsh pick it up offensively lately. :)

[@MustangRed1967]

Jimmy give us your Rhode Island accent!

[@MustangRed1967]

Ruben is Nola is not effective in a big game that means he's NOT effective in big Games. He has been remarkable lately tho Absolutely.

[@MustangRed1967]

I never like being best team going into playoffs.

[@Betty-Boop809]

Ha, SAME. I’m already worrying about the playoffs. It’s bittersweet because I love all the winning now , but deep down I know the consequences of going into the playoffs known “as the best team”.

Before I listen any further, please please say that you were Jose from Kennett Square as a caller

[@ThePhilliesShow]

We don't what that means, but the answer is no.
