Flyballs are going to be brutal to track tonight. Wind is blowing in like I’ve never seen it before. The flag poles are moving back and forth pic.twitter.com/Z1ZL4SICrp

Someone in Ashburn Alley is going to get a face full of grease walking behind anyone carrying a Manco & Manco slice. It sounded like T-Mac and RAJ were trying to call a game during a hurricane earlier. Tracking a fly ball has been insane. Guys are starting in the middle of the diamond and ending up near first base to catch a routine pop-up. You have to be some sort of specimen to get the ball out of the park tonight.
Good thing JT Realmuto is country strong:

Is that Realmuto or Magnus ver Magnussen on the Atlas Stones?
Shout out to the wind. The Phillies have hit like shit for a week and they’ve scored the most runs in a game since that Sunday matinee against the Dodgers. How by playing small ball? Of course not. This team makes zero sense. Two home runs and some help from Mother Nature.
The real MVP for the Phillies tonight:
