Who knew your dad and Jo had the same-exact recording style? There’s a likely chance he has every single at bat from the game. Every time the cameras caught him he had his phone in hand, filming. Embiid was out there streaming like the old dude you follow on Instagram that goes live every weekend to one follower.

The visual of Embiid standing up and no one being within two feet of the shot makes me laugh every time:

All we got was some guy’s dome and a couple of hands. Joel Embiid is Gulliver and entire ballpark last night was Lilliput:

If NBCSports Philly needs a new cameraman after this guy got his pink slip at least they know they have one across the street.


Unless MLB takes him to court for copyright infringement first:

What a moment. This is awesome to see. Small things like Embiid foregoing a suite and the rich people in the Diamond Club and being invested in the game goes a long way in this city. No security. No handlers or PR people. Just vibes. People latch on to these kind of moments a lot in this city. You invest in this city and this city’s sports team a lot of times you’re going to have fans for life whether you’re the franchise cornerstone or you were here for one year. Lets hope these are the vibes that turn the season around and become the catalyst for the Phils going on a tear. That’s three straight now. 25 runs in three games. Different guys each night are starting to come through. A magnificent defensive play by Johan Rojas to save a run in extras won’t even be the fifth-most talked about story from this game, but it was a huge play. The pitching has been solid. Ranger is back. Bryce Harper hasn’t even begun to heat up yet. I think (read: pray) the boys go on a solid run in September. This team would go down as one of the most beloved in the history of Philadelphia if they win it all. Not just the organization. The personalities on this roster are some of the best we’ve ever experienced.
