BONUS: Jonathan Papelbon opens up about Philly, Bryce Harper | Baseball Isn't Boring
About this episode
It seemed like a perfect time to catch up with the Phillies' all-time saves leader. Why? Because Jonathan Papelbon certainly has a unique view of playing baseball in Philadelphia, while also being responsible for one of the most unforgettable moments in Bryce Harper's career - when the two tussled in the dugout as members of the Nationals. Papelbon is never shy about letting his true feelings be heard, which is why this is a must-listen. Before sitting down with Pap, Bradfo does also announce a Baseball Isn't Boring contest, while ranting a bit about MLB's umpire situation. (How does an ump execute a perfect game behind home plate and then never call balls and strikes the rest of the series?) It's all a great way to kick off the final week of the 2022 MLB season.
