No one should be surprised, this is what this team is, home runs and not much else. Phillies are good when they are hitting 3 or 4 home runs a game… if not, they’re most likely going to lose.

[@DJ118USMC]

Exactly, they live and die by the homer.

[@kel_bandz8462]

Yup live by the homer, die by the homer, completely on the coaching and players to wipe that philosophy away when October comes around, AZ just proved tonight that small ball wins games in October, especially game 7

[@DEXD72472]

D'backs didn't have as much pressure on them as the Phillies did because Arizona surpassed exceptions while Philly was expected to go back to the World Series this year

[@gmaqwert]

The fans realize that, I hope someday the organization figures it out.

[@bobbowie9350]

You need shut down pitchers.

[@Hemingway-dq4fx]

Got to hand it to Arizona, they were told time and time again that they didn't belong, and all they did was shrug and play gritty, resilient baseball. While the Phillies were running around showing everyone up and acting as though they were simply entitled to a world series birth, Arizona just kept their heads down and threw a big bucket of ice water on the Phillies. Let this be a lesson, never take an opponent lightly. They beat someone to get here, too. As for all the big name free agents, I never thought a team could win a title that way. A team needs to draft a core of players that have lost together. They need to go through the fire together. The problem with a free agent team is that most of the guys have gone through the fire somewhere else. They don't have the same hunger and drive. Arizona showed how a young hungry team that have come up through a system together can have an advantage against teams that may seem to be better on paper. And it is no coincidence that the two times the Phillies won the series is when the core of the team were drafted and developed by the Phillies.

[@nightowl5475]

That’s a great point.

[@walterschultz3579]

Very well said indeed! The 1980 and 2008 Phillies, for the most part grew together from the farm system and knew how to adjust and play simple fundamental baseball. Arizona, while not flashy plays baseball while this Phillies team is one-dimensional at the plate. This is not playing baseball.

No the Phillies are not better on paper or on the field. I just hope that John Middleton gets his act straight and fires the coaching staff like their hitting coach, pitching coach, bench coach. They need to bring In younger coaches not these old coaches that can't even coach their way out of a bag. They should only offer Aaron Nola a 1 or 2 year deal nothing more or less. They need to get rid of Craig Kembral too. He can't close. They need to add another quality starter and remove this fat from this team like Stott, Brohm, Johan Rohas, They need to all go. Arizona can hit but the Phillies they are a complete failure.

All night the Phillies chasing bad pitches in the dirt made it easy for the DBack pitchers, it was sickening! And it takes 4 wins btw, often times with the 4th being the toughest.

[@DaryMatera]

Ump was calling those dirt spraying pitches strikes all night. Especially Hinkel in the critical 8th where he mowed down the top of the Phillies order and soiled their socks. Totally unhittable with anything other than a tennis racquet. Philly needed Jimmy Conners up there, not Harper.

[@EdwardNevgloski]

The entire lineup is obsessed with hitting home runs. The focus of every at bat is home run. You can't win consistently that way, and you certainly can't win a championship with that approach. Even Turner is obsessed with it. Hitting, pitching, and defense wins championships. Home runs win single games. The front office needs to rethink its approach. In the end, I think the team got cocky after Game 2. It was building with the NLDS win. I think the team believed they could just home run their way to the WS and win it. They got cocky.

[@nightowl5475]

You hit it right on the head. Just think if they had a Rod Carew and Pete Rose leading off, then when the big guns come up, you’d have runners on base. The Phillies lead off with Schwaber, he’s batting like 220. That’s insane.

[@RegalEagle1979]

100% agree. You can see it when these guys take the plate. All they're trying to do is hit it into the stands. They stand there and watch strikes go by waiting for a perfect ball to hit a home run on. I hate this team.

Watching them play this series felt exactly like watching the Astros series last year - just waiting and waiting for momentum that never comes. We have a lot of star power, but we don’t have that charm or quality that the 2008 team had. I don’t know if it’s ego or slugger mentality or inability to play under pressure of all of the above, but we’re missing that special *quality* that’s needed to get the job done. I hate to say it, but I think it will be heartbreak after heartbreak with this group until we one day, however many years from now, rebuild and win another World Series

Hats off to The Dbacks. They were aggressive on the base pads & passed the paton. When the home run isnt there you need to get contact and get on base. "Take what the pitcher gives ya". Phillies were overly aggressive at the plate & never made any ingame adjusments. I don't see how we get back next year. How many teams have reached the championship series 3 years in a row??? I think DD needs to really look at this roster and make some changes. P.S I think Bryce being pitched around soo much made him cold. Think about it.. He wasn't getting pitches to hit & when it was finally there he was no longer hot. Also, it's game 7 of the NLCS and the drip you pick is a Pat Bev 76ers jersey?

Saw a title in 80. Another in 08. Best team I ever saw there was 93. They didn’t have the pitching to win it, but they had a lineup that understood the game better than this edition.

Facts let's go rangers

[@frankarmstrong7204]

What about being managed better?

[@jemainemajor2765]

Phillies tricked us. They made so much money these last 2 playoffs.

[@Acts-xu7th]

😂😂😂😂 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@angeldaniel7360]

I think they have Trea Turner is a cursed!!

[@Pinoysoundmachine74]

That’s exactly what I thought TREA TURNER is a cursed for this team. Too bad the Phillies signed him for a long contract

[@Acts-xu7th]

Don't no why they got this Clown REMEMBER he came from the OCTOBER CHOKING DODGERS 😂😂

[@mikeisagodd2121]

Even "Ruin Tomorrow" is frustrated...

[@T-BONE79]

Hell of a season just the bats went cold

[@williamabaker12]

What happened to all that "this is what a TEAM looks like" comments?? Huh, what's that? Oh, you're choking on humble pie? Take your time, we'll wait.

[@davidrenthal9416]

I'm just here to soak in the Philly tears... LET'S GO DBACKS!!!!

[@astronomicafilms]

Weird. You must have such a miserable life that you'd rather "soak up tears" than enjoy the victory with your own team's fans.

[@DEXD72472]

​@@astronomicafilmsyou referring to those Philly fans that bought Arizona home tickets and called all of us D'backs fans losers?

[@talos6202]

You'll experience those same tears once the Rangers win the Championship. You have no chance to beat them. None!

[@RJTradess]

I will definitely be sure to stop in and mock you guys on your Arizona sports channels when y’all get swept by the rangers. You’re not winning

[@PhillyGuy1966]

D-Backs are a young scrappy, fundamentally sound team. Playing baseball like you should. Hitting, stealing, hit and runs and good defense. All the Phillies want is to hit home runs. Look how many home runs were solo shots. Brutal, unsound baseball!

[@piggy8761]

5:40 😂😂😂 MICHAEL BARKANN 🤣🤣

[@AnthonyScarpa-er3sq]

Just Wow ! Can't believe it

[@Acts-xu7th]

Exactly

[@MarioSonicPhillyFan700]

My Grandpa is rolling in his grave!

[@simono.954]

My grandpa is Moonwalking in his grave, DBACKS BABY!!!

[@donramon2501]

​@@simono.954are you ready for the power rangers

[@bobbowie9350]

After game 2, this was a repeat of how the dodgers got shut down.

[@abbycat000]

Harper’s cut throat gesture, ring finger pointing, and stare downs for what? For the embarrassment, 😂😂 That’s what he deserves.

[@chauminhhuy]

No ring for the Phillies? I am so happy!😂😂LOL

[@Acts-xu7th]

Like the Zero Rings Rangers 😂😂

[@williamf.buckleyjr3227]

It's been called "small ball". No! It's called BASEBALL!!

[@maharajakal]

The arrogance of thinking that you belong in the World Series even before defeatting d backs

[@wa2k99]

As a Mets fan thanks for beating the Braves. I respect the passion of the Philly fan. . But screw those players who disrespected our team in the clubhouse.

[@lawrencesmith814]

Top or got out managed

[@brutallyhonestsportspodcast]

Should be fired

[@guardianx1328]

Well, the Phillies are looking a lot like the Braves.

[@hhattonaom9729]

RIP. Great season though!

[@dysontyronetd]

Not...

[@hhattonaom9729]

@@dysontyronetd it was 🤷🏼‍♂️ i mean most teams don’t even get to the playoffs

[@greeneggsandham91]

"We went 1 for 10 with RISP, but hey that's baseball. I'm proud of our guys. They battled. They did all you could ask of them." - Topper I would've fired him on the spot for that fair weathered bullshit. What a middle finger to the fan base.

[@chasstone5048]

Not many comments about moving runners in to home (1st n 3rd) or to 3rd no outs.. when that opportunity existed. That's your 2 runs they lost by. I definitely would of moved guys in the line up but it had worked. It might of made a difference, definitely thought they would win 2 of 5 but nope..good bunch of guys AZ has..

[@Alex-jo2oi]

How about bases loaded no runs scored

[@stueyduey5571]

This take sounds like when we swept the dodgers lol giant killers go DBACKS

[@asiaroberson3442]

Congrats 👏🎉 bro

[@angeldaniel7360]

Go Arizona 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
