Break up the Phillies
When Kyle Schwarber, who looks more beer-league softball superstar than lead-off hitter for the World Series favorite, is going ding-dong twice, well, cue Ice Cube, “today was a good day.”
The Phillies are crushing every mistake.
The Phillies have a bona fide 1-2 playoff punch that is as good as any since Curt Schilling paired with Randy Johnson with the D-Backs in ’01 and Pedro Martinez with Red Sox a few years later.
Side note: I know there are a lot of folks who have forever drawn the line on performance-enhancing drug users getting into Cooperstown. But keeping Schilling out because you think he is more d-bag than d-back is pretty petty, especially considering some of the world-class jackwagons in the Hall. Looking at you Ty Cobb.
