I was already proud of our work with @spacecitywx.bsky.social, but I’m just as proud of what we are doing here. In a crappy news landscape, we are just trying to be refreshingly boring, honest, and informative. Here’s to the next 10,000.

And the abomination that occurred across town at U-dub tonight.

Matt Lanza @mattlanza.bsky.social · 9h

This game was the cure I needed for the abomination I watched last night.

He was a favorite during his time in Philly.

Jamie Moyer is warming up for the Mariners in case this goes 15.

Also, thank GOD the free runner on 2nd base rule does not apply to the postseason.

This Tigers/M’s game is nuts. These guys are gonna be wiped. I’d just rest everyone in Toronto on Sunday and take the L.

Spent a lot of time researching my winter forecast. I hope you’ll enjoy reading it.

There’s a lot of charm in not I think. But there’s no denying the marketability of graded stuff if you’re looking to resell. And the protection it offers at least.

Solid!

First sports card I’ve ever had graded! I was anti for a long time, but thought it was time to join in for higher end/special stuff. CGC cases look nice too. #cardsky

Worst sports night in Philly since….?

I would not have brought in the closer in the 7th with runners on. But that’s me. There just comes a point where I think you need a new perspective.

Think you have to consider a managerial change in the off-season. I actually like Topper. But I’m not convinced he’s what this team needs right now. Always a fine line between good and what’s needed.

Yeah. Unfortunately the offense just died in the 3 games they lost. Not clutch. At all.

Hard to understate how true this is… the defending world champions have nothing on these pitchers and the Phillies are gonna lose it, one more run from the multiple times with runners in scoring position would have ended this game an hour ago

Matt Lanza @mattlanza.bsky.social · 1d

This is like the best pitching performance overall by the Phillies since the Halladay, Hamels, Oswalt, Lee days. And they’re gonna blow it.

It’s not Orion Kerkering’s fault that the offense played dead for 3/4 games. Poor kid. #Phillies

I just love the idea of it more than its value. Haha.

Is there a clutch metric in baseball? Like what someone’s average/OPS is in late innings with a chance to tie or take the lead?
