About this episode
The Phillies swept the Nationals over the weekend, and Kody Clemens led the way. He hit a game-tying home run with two outs in the ninth inning on Saturday. He hit a go-ahead double in the fifth inning on Sunday. Ruben, Jim and Todd talk about Clemens' massive contributions, and what the future might hold for him.
The Phillies are 34-14, tying the `93 and `76 Phils for the best 48-game start in club history. Only four teams in MLB have started 34-14 or better this century: 2023 Rays (34-14), 2016 Cubs (34-14), 2006 Tigers (34-14) and 2001 Mariners (36-12).
Jim loves Rob Thomson's message to his players to keep the motivated.
The gang also digs into Bryson Stott's turnaround; how the Phillies could make the case for four NL All-Star infielders with Bryce Harper, Alec Bohm, Trea Turner and Stott; Cristopher Sanchez's development, which had him touching 98 mph in the sixth inning on Saturday; and this week's matchup against the World Series-champion Texas Rangers.
