Harry Kalas, the Voice of the Phillies, Passes Away Today

Could It Be A Two Championship Year for Philadelphia? Dare I Ask?
As some of you may have gathered in the past few months, I’m a Phillies fan through and through. However, my breeding calls for loyalty to all Philadelphia sports teams, especially the Eagles. I can not claim to know all the ins and outs of the the team or football itself, but I can tell [...]
Rain, Rain, Go Away! World Series Game 5 Postponed Due to Rain

Phillies in First Place of NL East Division!
With the Phills’ nail-biting win tonight and the Mets’ loss, the Phillies finally reclaim what is rightfully theirs: the top position of the NL East! Call me biased, but the Phillies deserve to have the NL East title. While I’ll take playoff berth any which way I can get it (beggars can’t be choosers) I’d [...]
