I always found it to be straightforward to play in Philadelphia. Care, treat the fans with respect and play hard - every day. They will let you know when you fall short but they will also let you know when you stand tall. Am I right?

Doug Glanville could’ve gone
0-for-1536 at the end of his career and still finished as a .200 hitter. Think about that.
Tony Gwynn could’ve gone 0-for-1199 at the end of his career and still finished as a .300 hitter. Think about that.

Bobby was an outstanding all around player who quietly destroyed his opponents with a smile. His teammates knew he was a world class hitter. We often watched him like we were fans. Not for how far he would hit it, but for what magic he could create with a bat.

I tried to get Ozzie Smith in St. Louis. I dreamed of the moment. The Wizard would be smacked back to Oz. I slid in hard to the outfield side of the base. He gets the ball, steps on 2nd and then steps to the mound side of 2nd to turn two. I missed him by 10 feet.

To the “but you still have to hit the ball” camp.
If Superman fights against Superman who has one extra super power, it is obvious who will win most of the time.

Rex. I got the game winning hit in Game 3 the 2003 NLCS. The postgame questions framed it as the “biggest hit of my life.” But it wasn’t even close. It was the hit after recovering from a torn hamstring, the hit after my father died. Life comebacks are the biggest hit. Always. 👊🏾
I was arrested 8-years ago this week for stealing from an Apple Store to support my 14-year drug habit. It’s been 8-years for me this week without painkillers/opioids. Life’s hard. For everyone. Friends and family saved me. Check in on your people…

Ian. It does serve baseball players well to have long memories. For pattern recognition but also for grudges, unfortunately. One minor league manager slapped me (one of many incidents) and it was either do nothing or retaliate and never make it to the big leagues. I did nothing.
Amazing. Tommy Pham held a fantasy football grudge for over a year — an argument over an IR designation — and got revenge yesterday.
