One of these years, I'm going to remember to schedule a trip to catch one or more of the Phillies games at PNC Park. This year, it didn't work for several reasons. But I really do want to make it to a Fightins - Pirates game at PNC Park in the coming years.

It’s worth the trip. You will not be disappointed.

Schwarber has 207 home runs in his 5th year as a Philly. He’s 29 away from tying Babe Ruth as the person with the most home runs in his first 5 seasons with a club. McGwire is second at 220. Kiner holds the record for the 1st 5 seasons of a career

Here’s the list:

He buried that. 457 feet.

Harper filling stat sheets for the next 2-3 years will go a long way to cementing the HOF. Doesn’t even have to go crazy with an MVP year. He’s likely already in, but he needs to take any suspense out of it by piling on the counting stats. Crazy that he’s somehow younger than Judge given that this is his 15th season.
