And in case you were wondering?

Alec Bohm is still terrible.

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

What a run, but all good things...

What Cristopher Sanchez just did over the last 50.1 IP is something I’ll never forget watching. It is something we won’t see again in our lifetimes.

Fifty consecutive scoreless IP. Most ever by a LHP in MLB.

Thanks Sanchy.

lol so many dudes launch this pitch to another dimension.

Meanwhile…

[Philadelphia Phillies @Phillies]

Out in front 😤

[Gabe @CryptoMorey]

I never hear “ Stafford has a Super Team.” It’s only Jalen Hurts. Really interesting.

[j 🦅 @JoelBleedsGreen]

“nothing i ever said was for personal gain”

devonta smith went for 9 catches 183 yards and 1 touchdown against the Vikings in a week 7 win

this is what brown posted after the game

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Five straight playoff appearances.
Two Super Bowl appearances.
One Super Bowl title.

Heaven? Yeah I’m good. Have fun in New England, AJ.

AJ Brown on being traded to the Patriots:

"I know this ain't heaven, but it's close to it."

If anyone ever said this about me, I’d retire on the spot.

Jordan Mailata: “Sean [Mannion] is an evil genius. The guy knows ball. If I were to lock the three smartest people in the building in a room together, Sean would be there. He’d probably be by himself.” #Eagles

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Just watched Shohei stop running halfway to first and turn back to the dugout on a ground out.

Could you imagine if Harp ever did that? It would burn down the city.

Anyway, great win.

(And a division leader…)

[SleeperMLB @SleeperMLB]

The American League is… bad

Yes, there is currently a Wild Card team with a losing record

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

You’ll see a ton of stats surrounding Cristopher Sanchez the next 24 hours.

Here’s the main one:

Not a single run allowed the entire month of May. 39 IP. Not a single run.

That’s next level dominance. Special.

[John Foley @2008Philz]

I spoke with Grover Cleveland Alexander today about Cristopher Sánchez possibly breaking his franchise consecutive scoreless inning record.

“I’m rooting for him,” said Alexander, age 139. “He’s an incredible talent.”

Classy stuff from Old Pete.

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Very difficult player to cheer for at this point in his career. Looking forward to next season when he’s gone.

[Philly Sports Sufferer @mccrystal_alex]

29 year old Alec Bohm still slamming his helmet into the ground after going 0-3

Grow up man

[Scott Lauber @ScottLauber]

Don Mattingly talked before the game about the need for the #Phillies' right-handed hitters to produce more vs. lefties.

Today vs. Guardians LHP Parker Messick:

--RHHs (Turner, Bohm, Realmuto, Garcia, Sosa): 1-for-13, 5 Ks
--LHHs (Schwarber, Harper, Stott, Marsh): 4-for-9, 1 K

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Really hope this fanbase is hanging onto what we are fortunate enough to watch right now. Beyond elite.

[John Foley @2008Philz]

Wheeler and Sánchez since May 1:

58.2 IP, 37 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 7 BB, 60 K

0.77 ERA, 0.75 WHIP

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Yes. I think it’s fair to say the Phillies pre-Rob firing were sloppy and losing games on their own. Not all games are created equal.-

If you watched the game last night, Williams was every bit as good as Sanchez. He was fantastic.

Smith was one pitch better than Duran.

[paul jolovitz @jollywipradio]

@LesBowen Nothing really specific, we just seem to think that losses have nothing to do with the opponent.

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

I still think they find a way in the dance come October, but man…

It would really suck to waste this version of Sanchy-Wheeler if they were to miss.

[Matt Gelb @MattGelb]

It wasn’t that Cristopher Sánchez extended his scoreless streak, it was how he did it — by throwing his third pitch more than he ever has in his career. Another level unlocked?

“I’ve never felt like this.”

@aazzalina Taryn continues to prove why we have been and always will be two of her biggest fans.

Great thread.

[Taryn Hatcher @TarynNHatcher]

Guys, stop being mean to Spencer. He’s worked way too hard, for way too many years, with not nearly enough recognition along the way.

I wanted this to die down on its own, and let Spence win people over on his own, because he will. He’s a phenomenal person.

[rat king fan Robert Orr @NotTheBobbyOrr]

The best pitcher in the NL threw a CGSO with 13 Ks in the PHI-PIT series, as you might expect. Paul Skenes gave up 5 earned in 5+ tho

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Maybe we caught a break after all?

[Mike @mhc_76]

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

Coming back here to make sure it’s seen again.

[Mike Thomas @TheMikeDrop5]

The Bryce Harper critics have been suddenly very quiet.

🤷‍♂️🤣
