This Losing Streak Has Phillies Fans on the Brink of Tears

Losing 9 of 10 will have Phillies fans feeling some type of way. Try to love something as much as this guy loves the Phils. Don’t tell him it’s June and we still have 100 games left. The Phillies lost the state title and this guy can’t handle it:
Now this guy probably has issues that goes way beyond the Phillies, but I want someone to get this video in Bryce Harper’s hands. Get it in Bryson Stott’s hands. There’s no crying in baseball, but there is when you get blanked by the Pirates. Grown ass men on the brink of tears because people on Twitter are saying the Pirates run Pennsylvania. When they get to the ballpark for the first game of the Cubs series the Phils PA announcer should play this call on repeat over the loud speaker. Show what losing baseball games does to people in this city. Show them how much it means to the fans while they can’t hit or pitch. The Phillies need to pull their heads out of their asses because the people of Philadelphia can’t take this inept team any longer. Every time they show flashes of stability they go out and embarrass us over a two-week stretch and it brings us all back down to Earth. There’s zero reason why we’re in year four of being “World Series contenders” and seeing the same things that doomed the teams before them. The strongest man would be brought to tears.
