Fans rightfully giving Andrew Painter a standing ovation. Hell of an outing, wish he had the shutout.

THEY CALL HIM BRUCE! My man DID NOT want a golden sombrero
Which reminds me, one of the worst parts of Jordan Romano totally sucking shit last year is that he had that crazy 70s baseball player look going. But he sucked shit hard through a straw.
John Lowe@archaeocore.bsky.social · 2h agoSorry, I don’t want to see a St. Louis pitcher in powder blue throwbacks with a groomed mustache, I want to see someone paying tribute to the Mad Hungarian Al Hrabosky!

That was some of my favorite T-Mac and Kruk banter of the year
You know, I think depending on who is available in the offseason, having Hill and de la Cruz and Crawford as a CF/RF rotation could work next year.
Me, earlier today after waking up with a decent hangover: Maybe a sober Saturday is in order… Me, walking home down Passyunk from picking up some of Dena’s prescriptions: Well, maybe I’ll make a quick stop at Bottle Shop…
Today’s stressed and depressed thrifting didn’t yield any big scores, but I’ve been wanting some larger wicking/dri-fit shirts for fieldwork and working out, and found a Phillies 2022 playoffs and a Sixers shirt for $4.50 each. Also a pair of Phillies running shorts that’ll be house shorts.
I’m not sure anyone has done more less deserved in AEW and ROH than nepo baby Hook except Action Andretti #rohdbd
I was told you have to be an unemotional robot to succeed in baseball
I was watching the Ring of honor PPV but got distracted by the absolutely ridiculous Philly sunset!
Philly fans booing Jordan Walker as a sign of respect, love it.
Bought some records at Sit and Spin, talked to the owner for like 30 minutes. Drank some beers at ARS, talked to the bartender for an hour or more. Was a good afternoon, nice to talk about 70s and 80s punk rock and power pop and hardcore and what have you.
The flip side of understanding how much of one's career is luck is that it helps tamp down envy when friends catch luck. I have friends with movies and TV series! Other friends with ten times my sales! Good for them. It's nice when people you like get that break. They deserve it, as much as anyone.

I was supposed to down the shore Thursday through Saturday but then life intervened. But tickets to the ROH PPV at 2300 are way sold out :(
Shouldn’t YouTube be hosting the Video Music Awards at this point (also could be post from 2016)
What makes this even more grotesque is that Doris Miller was denied the medal of honor when he was alive just because he was black. bsky.app/profile/carl...

Democrats should have the DNC in Philadelphia. We have actual public transit.

90 minutes of Flo Rida sounds like 85 or more minutes too many…

I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but I just made a GoFundMe for David's mom and brother. Thomas has been battling colon cancer, and today we found out it has spread to his bones. My MIL, Irma, has been caring for him. And then she found out she has kidney cancer and needs her kidney removed.

Another quality start from Nola. If he can keep that up, I’m a little less worried about the potential playoff starting rotation
