(0:00 – 9:50 )

We start the show by discussing the Phillies securing a first-round bye following their victory over the Marlins on Wednesday night. Ricky acknowledges Edmundo Sosa for consistently putting forth his best effort. Additionally, Ricky shares a statistic indicating that Sosa is the only shortstop in Phillies history to hit three home runs in a single game. In the meantime, Bill emphasizes that the most crucial aspect for the Phillies to concentrate on as they conclude the regular season is the arrangement of their rotation.

(9:50 – 19:24 )

We turn our attention to the potential of Kyle Schwarber surpassing the Phillies' regular season home run record. Ricky asserts that Rob Thomson must provide Schwarber with the opportunity to achieve this milestone as the season approaches its conclusion. Both Bill and Ricky concur that Schwarber will indeed break the record prior to the season's end.

(19:24 – 28:20 )

Bill and Ricky concur that the Phillies are a well-rounded team this season. Ricky attributes their success this year to Rob Thomson's effective communication with the players. Bill believes this season is among the most remarkable for the Phillies, considering the significant challenges the team has faced. Both Ricky and Bill are in agreement that this is the year for the Phillies to secure a championship, particularly due to the number of players who will be entering free agency at the conclusion of the season.

We persist in our discussion regarding the Phillies as we anticipate the postseason. Ricky and Bill examine how the rotation can impact the team's performance on the mound. To further this conversation, we open our text board.
