For the third straight postseason, the Phillies blow a Game 1 lead in the seventh inning or later. It's happening all over again. They lose, 5-3, and they face elimination Wednesday afternoon.

Very glad each Phillies wild card game is midday on weekdays. Very good job, MLB, getting people to watch your product at the most interesting time. Clown show.

“The Phillies remain in control of their own destiny — the nine most dangerous words imaginable” Hell of a piece by Gelb on this ongoing disaster.

The Phillies are down 10. It’s a catastrophe. Worse than any of us could have imagined. Dave Dombrowski better be out of a job real soon

Aaron Nola is doing hero shit tonight for the Phillies. Regardless of how it goes, he’s our dude, like he has been so many times before. But an absolute indictment on this organization that he had to pitch on two days rest to secure a playoff spot

Entirely desperate thing to do, but at this point, what other options do the Phillies have? This organization, even if it manages to get to the postseason, is hemorrhaging in nearly every conceivable way. The one strength? The starting rotation, and now they'll find a way to fuck that up too.

I can't pinpoint the exact moment the world went to shit, but my working hypothesis is when we stopped seeing Amanda Peet in movies/shows at a regular frequency.

Michael Stark @starktrek.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

It’s a weird thing to be a Phillies fan right now. Of course I want them to win. But I have no confidence this group can do it. We’re on year 5 of this core. Maybe the best long term thing that can happen is for them to miss the playoffs and the substantial change that’s overdue can finally happen

Jonathan Bowlan has warmed up every fucking night (just like Mayza and McFarlane), and has been gassed for weeks now. He was a walking injury waiting to happen due to fatigue, and it is the risk when your manager dry humps his pen every game.

In a game the Phillies won 3-0 and their starting pitcher threw 7 shutout innings, Don Mattingly used three relievers and warmed up two others that never came in

I dunno. If your show is becoming interwoven with the word “gimmick” maybe the problem isn’t the viewer.

Oh is it living through a pandemic? Or the cost of everything being through the roof? Or our country being run by some of the most awful and stupidest people you could imagine? Or that illnesses we’ve long controlled are coming back because people don’t believe in science?

Enjoying the second season of the Star Trek docuseries "The Center Seat", but my goodness the editing is obnoxious. There's so many cuts for something of this kind. Tough to watch at times.

I went to REI to pick up my new annual National Parks pass. Instead of an image of our parks, which is customary, it has a picture of Trump. I genuinely thought REI was playing a trick on me.

The new episode of "Dropping Names with Brent and Jonny" is with Michelle Hurd and it has a pretty interesting discussion about the cast changeover in "Picard". Hurd describes the challenges of the cast change. I follow this all fairly closely, so this was an interesting perspective

Wade Meckler jumped into the stands to rob Bryson Stott of a go-ahead, three-run homer in the ninth inning. Then, Edmundo Sosa hit a pinch-hit grand slam. What in the absolute hell.
