And by the way, that's a big Fuck You to the dumb no blocking the plate rule that nobody understands. That's just baseball right there. Pure and simple.

Let's just ignore how intoxicated I am and realize how much like 08'some Victorino's throw that was. Actually, even better. If this team SUCKS and makes a run athe the playoffs I'm perfectly fine with that.

Yeah. At least they're enjoyable to watch again. That throw was one of those moments where, drunk or not, you let your mind think "this makes no sense, but what if....?"

Sounds like his sister is a piece of garbage. And if I know being from Philly, she'll get her part of the team and do like Rachel Phelps ala Major League. But other than that, this is the kind of owner you want. Hopefully he gets 100% of this team.

fangraphs had a cool feature ranking the mlb announcers. phillies were 30 out of 32 (30 teams but some teams have separate crews for home and road games). ranking seemed accurate. I wonder how long mccarthy's contract is for
Here's a baseball scenario for you guys that my friend and I like to joke about. There is, in our opinion, a right and wrong answer to this:
Man on second, nobody out. You're a member of the hitting team in dugout. Your clean-up hitter comes to the plate and he grounds out to the second baseman. When he returns to the dugout, do you give him a high-five for moving the runner to third?

Yes. Technically it was a successful at bat. I am not a fan of sac bunting, but moving a guy over is significantly better than a K. The clean up hitter throws a wrench in it, but if you give the number 9 hitter a high-five, you give every hitter a high-five.

See I disagree. I feel that since he's the cleanup hitter, you'd be patronizing him. Especially when his job is to drive in runs when guys are in scoring position. So where another batter (certainty the 8th or 9th batter) might deserve the high-five, I wouldn't give one to the cleanup hitter.
This debate actually began on a drunken Sunday afternoon at Citizens Bank Park two years ago. My friend and I were sitting right next to the Phillies dugout (the best seats I've ever had a Phillies game actually) when, with a man on second and nobody out, Howard hit a soft bouncer to the second baseman, moving the runner to third. Now my friend is a little similar to The Fixer in that he was on the "this is the worst-contract ever" side of the fence pretty early on with Howard. And as Howard began trotting back to the dugout after grounding out, my friend starts screaming at the players in the dugout "DON'T YOU DARE HIGH-FIVE HIM FOR MOVING THE RUNNER OVER! DON'T YOU DARE! IF IT WAS FREDDY GALVIS YOU COULD BUT NOT RYAN!!!" It was funny.

I get what you're saying and everyone knows their role on the team, but I feel like that it is incredibly patronizing (probably not the right word..more of a slap in the face) to the 8 or 9 hitter. I could go either way on this.

Your friend is irrational. He advanced the runner. HIGH FIVES ALL AROUND!
