"Stay Loose And Sexy, Baby" -- The Key To The Phillies Being The Best Team In Baseball Right Now
The Phillies are the hottest team in baseball. They've won 5 in a row, are 9-1 in their last 10 games, and have only lost 2 games in a row twice so far this season. They're top 5 in the league in hits, home runs, RBIs, thrown strikeouts, and stolen bases. These little freaks can do it all.
What's been the key to their success? Is it the fact that they have the 4th highest payroll in the MLB? Is it because this team has started to slug their dicks off again like this lineup was built to do? Does it have to do with the fact that they've just gotten to rack up wins against teams like the Rockies, White Sox and Giants?
The correct answer is D) None of the above. The biggest thing separating this team from the rest of the league is that they stay loose, and they stay sexy.
This team just knows how to give the people what they want. Just a bunch of USDA grade A certified beefcakes looking to put asses in the seats just so they can make them to jump out.
God it is just so sweet to be a Philadelphia sports fan where none of our teams get our hopes up to the moon just to completely shatter them a few months later. Get me to October.
