The @Phillies are the second team in MLB history to have a player hit for the cycle (Bryce Harper) and a player hit 3 homers (Kyle Schwarber) in the same game.
The other was the Yankees on June 3, 1932 (Tony Lazzeri cycle, Lou Gehrig 4 homers).
Rob Thomson made himself available to reporters on Tuesday, which is rather rare for a manager who just lost his job. Here's why he did:
“If you’re an accountable person, if you’re a leader, you’re going to stand up in front of people and answer the questions when it’s all over. And I just wanted to make sure that I did that in the right way. It’s like the last four years, I hope that people feel like, whether I did a good job or a bad job, I represented this organization properly, with class and with dignity. So this is all part of it to me.”
Without a change of direction in the assumption of political responsibility, and without respect for institutions and international agreements, humanity's destiny risks being tragically compromised. God does not want this. His holy Name must not be profaned by the desire for domination, arrogance, or discrimination. Above all, it must never be invoked to justify death-dealing choices and actions.
God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.
Absurd and inhuman violence is spreading ferociously through the sacred places of the Christian East, profaned by the blasphemy of war and the brutality of business, with no regard for people’s lives, which are considered at most collateral damage of self-interest. But no gain can be worth the life of the weakest, children, or families. No cause can justify the shedding of innocent blood.
Christ is risen from the dead, and with him, we too rise to new life! This Easter proclamation embraces the mystery of our lives and the destiny of history, reaching us even in the depths of death. #Easter
The wars that stain the present moment with blood are the fruit of the idolatry of power and money. Let us not grow accustomed to the clamor of weapons and images of war! #Peace is not merely a balance of power. It is the work of purified hearts, of those who see others as brothers and sisters to be protected, not enemies to be defeated. #ApostolicJourney https://t.co/WeRUclJHqq
You can literally see the heavy in his eyes before she spoke. Liam knew he was gonna have to talk about that game without being able to process it. and after the first yes mam you see his eyes get lighter. human decency will always win in my book. Regardless of unwritten rules, she showed kindness when it wasn't expected.
