[@Jbow3607]

Legendary content thank you so much!

[@peggyann11]

WE HAVE JUST LOST 8 IN A ROW. I HAVE BEEN A PHILLIES FAN FOR 53 YEARS AND AS LONG AS THE PHILLIES ARE ALIVE ,KEEP ON BELIEVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@IMDEBESable]

5 years later, July 13, 2019 when everything felt like we might do something this season (who knows - MAYBE things will change??) But after last nights total fail, deflating loss against the damn Nats. eh, it's looking more bleak every day. Jesus, I think the biggest team we have troublw with are those sad Marlins!! (wtf!!?) Our pitching, especially this crap bullpen just stinks up the league! Unless that changes, maybe some big huge trade before the deadline for decent pitching..this 2nd half may feel very long. :(

[@Wadiyatalkinabeet_]

@@IMDEBESable Could be worse. I love the Phil’s but my favorite team is the O’s and you could be an Orioles fan like me🤣🤣🖤🧡🖤🧡 that ruins some days🧡🖤🧡🖤

[@nickdimatteo4193]

and in 2018 it will be 10 years since the second trophy of the world series was won by the Phillies...the first one was in 1981...I like to see the Phillies win a 3rd World Series trophy....can 2018 be that year for them ?????...we will have to wait and see

[@baseballbreaksonabudget8691]

Nick DiMatteo nope, didn't make playoffs...BUT EEAAAGGGLLLEEEESSSSSSS

[@coreylevine3856]

the Eagles did this in 2018

[@joemamma416]

cmon nick it was 1980 not 81

[@Wadiyatalkinabeet_]

I’d love to see the Phils get another one but man I want my O’s to win first
