00:00Despite the Philz not being able to sweep the Astros in the midweek, they had won 9 of 14.
00:08Atlanta coming off a sweep in their midweek set and they had won 9 of their last 11, including a
00:15series victory over these Phillies last week in Atlanta. Atlanta had won 9 of its last 11.
00:22That came to an end yesterday. Philadelphia, a 5-4 victory over the Braves.
00:28Nick Castellanos, a 2-run home run. That was the difference. Philadelphia gets a big win
00:35over a divisional foe. DRS Atlanta entered yesterday winning 6 of the 9 games against
00:40the fight in so far this year. Nick Castellanos, Brandon Marsh with a 3-run shot to get Philadelphia
00:47back in the baseball game. The difference yesterday for Atlanta.
00:51Oh, it certainly was big. It was a huge win for the Phillies. But I got to tell you this,
00:55that's not even an enjoyable win. Obviously yesterday we're focused on college football.
00:59Have you enjoyed a win? No, I haven't enjoyed anything. This team has the best record in
01:04baseball. I can't stand them right now. I was watching the game on and off the start. Okay,
01:10I think the Phillies can win tonight. Better pitcher on the mound. We'll see what happens.
01:13And it looked like they just weren't even going to get a hit or even score a run. And I don't
01:16smoke cigarettes. But I was ready to go light up a cigarette when Matt Olsen hit one over the
01:21batting eye in center field. Like a 500-foot home run. I said, I can't take this anymore.
01:26And I went to sold-out crowd at Citizens Bank Park, probably booing the lights out of this team.
01:30Like, sooner or later you have to wake up and can't just like, hey, hopefully we can split
01:34the series with the Atlanta Braves. Stop it. Be a championship organization and wipe the Braves
01:39off the field. Now they came back like they were supposed to do. And maybe some unheralded guys
01:43like Brandon Marsh getting them back into the game with a big home run. You'll take every win
01:48you can get. But going back and forth, Ben, is enjoyable. Hey, 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, back to 4-3.
01:54Not we can't even get a base hit and we're down 4-0 midway through the game against a middling
01:58pitcher on an Atlanta Braves team that's so injured they shouldn't even be in the same
02:02ballpark with you. But they did get the victory. And maybe over the next week I'll be able to sit
02:06down from start to finish and enjoy my favorite baseball team. Yesterday, couldn't do it. Happy
02:11day one. Couldn't enjoy it at all.
