In the last 14 years since the Philadelphia Phillies had made the playoffs many things in baseball have happened.
The Phillies have had 5 managers (one of which left to win a world series)
The Phillies have had 22 different all-stars
Curt Schilling lost a world series, left, won a world series, bled threw a sock, and won a second world series.
Scott Rolen left, won a world series.
There was a league wide strike that almost killed baseball.
There was a large man from the Midwest that hit many balls very far that saved baseball.
There was a large man from the bay area that hit more balls further that is a villain. And they hate him so much that a fashion designer spent an obscene amount of money on his baseball only to deface it. (This is why women should stop sending our money on clothes.)
There was a latin American player that corked his bat, that everyone loves but there was a latin American player that needed a little blue pill to get his bat corked, that everyone hates.
Montreal went to Washington DC.
2 high school teams won the World Series... or was that the Marlins.
The leagues favorite player was Ken Griffey Jr. He is still loved because no one can be injured that often and have taken steroids.
The Yankees spent lots of money won lots of games. (nothing new there) A man was celebrated for playing many games in a row. (If you go into work for 3000 straight days that either means you don’t want to go home to be with your family or your secretary is outstanding)
There are 2 more division and a wild card.
Two teams that wear Sox ended very long World Series droughts.
Another team with a long drought blamed a fan from the stands for losing the NLCS. (Not the bullpen that blew the lead, or the offence that couldn’t score the next day, they blamed a fan. Come on Chicago blame a real person for your misfortunes, like Santa Clause)
Then: Big Daddy---------------Now: Big Papi
(English, M'Fers. Do you speak it?)
Atleast the Phillies got back to the Playoffs before the Pirates.
Then: Big Daddy---------------Now: Big Papi
