Stairs, rips one into the night, deep into right, way out of here.

Swam on, get it, crossed, and the Phillies are going to lead it.

Harper, the swing of his life.

The O2 pit, swing and a miss, struck him out.

From W.HY, Y, it is hitting season.

Hey, there, podcast, pals. I'm John Stolness from The Good Fight. You can follow me on X and Blue Sky at John Stolness. Coming up, Phillies have the greatest weekend ever. In Pittsburgh, they swept the pirates, finishing it off with a Paul Skeen's meltdown on Sunday afternoon, which was just a beautiful thing to see. And so the Phillies roll

under Don Mattingly. And yeah, yeah, a dusty Wathen game in there too, everybody. As the Phillies

roll continues, they are now over 500 for the first time since very, very early in the season,

and what a turnaround after that 10-game losing streak. So we're going to talk all about these three games in Pittsburgh. Really difficult for me to kind of suss out, I think, which was the best of the three games this weekend. But that'll be what we talk about here on this episode of the Roundtable. Justin Clue and Liz Rocher joining me as always. Justin Clue, of course, is from baseball prospectus. He also hosts a couple of podcasts over at the Hitton Season, the Dirty Innings and Absolutely Hammered. That's at patreon.com slash hit in season. And you can also read his new book, Summer of the Cheap Weeners, which is over my shoulder if you're watching us on the YouTube. Follow him on Blue Sky at Justin Clue. Justin, how's it going, buddy?

Good weekend.

Maybe if Paul Skeens had graduated from the Air Force Academy, he'd have given up fewer missiles.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Well done. But my favorite statistic from the weekend is that the Phillies scored 23 runs.

And of those 23 runs, 18 were either knocked in or scored by Kyle Schwarber or Bryce Harper.

So as far as aspects of the team, you got to get going.

The top three guys, you know, two of the top three guys in your offense, the big three, as they've

started to be referred to, they're going. They're going pretty hard. And that's really,

really helping out. And then, you know, we'll get into it. But you saw a couple of smaller

contributions that were also just good to see as well. Absolutely. We're going to dive into all

that stuff here in the next few minutes. But first, let's introduce Liz Rocher, the editor of Sabres Baseball Research Journal. You can follow her on X and Blue Sky at Liz Rocher. Liz, how are you?
