@2008Philz “ May have hurt himself when he hit the turf” lmao that turf being 1/8” thin layer of green plastic carpet 💀

[Jeff Kerr @JeffKerrPHL]

The #Phillies had 1 hit. They struck out 15 times.

Gabriel Rincones went 0-for-3 in his #MLB debut.

Andrew Painter gave up 5 runs and has a 6.43 ERA. The opener strategy didn't matter.

They are still 5 games over .500.

This is a game you flush.

This weekend series against the Brewers reminds me of last year when the league picked Misiorowski over Sánchez for the All-Star Game. A lot of very pissed off Phillies players in that San Diego clubhouse. The Phillies paid out Sánchez's All-Star bonus anyway.

There was no doubt the Knicks were gonna come back and win when the Clan came out at halftime and smoked it 👐

[Corey Seidman @CoreySeidman]

The Phillies are 21-5 in games started by Cristopher Sanchez, Zack Wheeler and Jesus Luzardo since the date Wheeler was activated.

7-1 with Sanchez, 7-2 with Wheeler, 7-2 with Luzardo with all three of them healthy.

CNN's resident fact-checker Daniel Dale hasn't conducted an on-air fact check of Trump in more than three months, a stretch that coincidentally began around the same time Paramount announced its merger with WBD

If you ever find a pretty girl who keeps a score at a baseball game, marry her.

Maggie Haberman put Hillary Clinton's emails on the front page of the @nytimes over 140 times. Hillary did not give Maggie Haberman access and Trump did.

I hate the White House press corps. They are not serious people. They are giddy TMZ gossip columnists who are desperate for clicks and likes. Trump gives them access every day when serious presidents do not because they are actually working.

Corporate media is broken.

#Phillies Bryce Harper leads all of baseball with 59 plate appearances with two outs and no one on base. He has done so at least once in 42 games this season, also tops in MLB.

Stop batting him third—whether he likes it or not.

[Spencer Rothbell @srothbell]

love this sequence, the mirror animation is so impressive, seeing the back of homer synced with the front and marge's reaction all at once, cool to see this type of creative camera choice in animation

[Ray Dunne @RayDunne975]

EDMUNDO. SOSA. RING IT.

#RingIt tidbit: With that homer, Sosa has passed Brad Miller, Dickie Thon and Nap Lajoie on the Phillies all-time HR list.

He’s now tied with Cliff Lee, Jay Johnstone and Rip Repulski on the list.
