The Philadelphia Phillies shake up their coaching staff as Don Mattingly seeks a fresh start, raising questions about accountability and leadership.

Connor Thomas examines the firings of hitting coach Kevin Long and infield coach Bobby Dickerson, the controversial hiring of former Mets manager Carlos Mendoza as third base coach, and what these moves mean for clubhouse chemistry. Insights include the real impact of positional coaches on stars like Bryce Harper and Trea Turner, the fan base’s reaction to staff changes, and how managerial experience might influence the upcoming MLB season.

| PHILLIES POSTCAST: Philadelphia Phillies get HRs from Schwarber, Harper & Bohm in 4-3 WIN vs Braves | 30 Sep 2026 | 00:19:56 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies even their WILD CARD series up at ONE all with 4-3 WIN over the Atlanta Braves in 10 innings! Trea Turner led off the game for the Phillies and smacked a double into right field, then scored on a Bryce Harper RBI single to left. Then with one out, Alec Bohm drove a single into left, putting Harper on third. Bryson Stott then hit a grounder of Braves’ starter Tyler Mahle, keeping the ball in the infield. Despite that, Harper kept breaking for home and was eventually thrown out in a rundown. The Braves evened up the score in the bottom of the 1st inning. Ronald Acuna Jr. drew a leadoff walk, stole second, then third and scored on Matt Olson’s RBI single. Atlanta then took a 3-1 lead in the bottom of the 7th thanks in part to another lead off walk. This time it was Cristopher Sanchez walking Sean Murphy. Then Drake Baldwin lined a ball to Bryce Harper in right field that Harper misplayed, having it bounce off his glove allowing Murphy to score. Matt Olson followed with an RBI sac fly to center. The Phillies responded immediately in the top of the 8th as Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper went back-to-back with homers off of Dylan Lee to even the score at three. Alec Bohm made the difference in the ball game with a solo homer to right for a 4-3 Phillies Lead. Andrew Painter tossed three-scoreless innings of baseball and picked up the win in his first postseason appearance.

| BELIEVE: Philadelphia Phillies Clinch with Zack Wheeler’s Heroics, But Fans Still DIVIDED About Run | 28 Sep 2026 | 00:33:15 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies clinch a postseason berth after a rollercoaster finish—can they shake off a shaky September and topple the Atlanta Braves? Connor Thomas examines how Zack Wheeler’s dominance sealed the playoff spot, while questions linger around a slumping offense, inconsistent bullpen, and the bold Game 1 pitching plan featuring Jesús Luzardo as an opener with Andrew Painter ready from the bullpen. Big storylines include Bryce Harper and Edmundo Sosa’s timely power, Philadelphians’ divided faith in the team’s October prospects, and the psychological edge—or burden—of “nobody believes in us.” With all eyes on Chris Sale and a challenging Braves lineup, Connor Thomas breaks down why Game 1 is practically a must-win and explores whether the Phillies’ postseason mentality can fuel a turnaround. Is Red October just beginning, or will recent woes derail the Fightins’ playoff dreams?

The Philadelphia Phillies clinch a wildcard berth with 7-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays, thanks to Zack Wheeler and the bats FINALLY waking up. Wheeler started for the Phillies on four days rest and gave them six innings of one run baseball.

| PHILLIES POSTCAST: Despite MANY MOVES the Philadelphia Phillies STILL STINK, lose to Rays, 12-1 | 27 Sep 2026 | 00:20:08 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies get EMBARRASSED by the Tampa Bay Rays, 12-1 Aaron Nola tried his hand at heroics by starting for the Phillies despite only being on two days rest. The gamble did NOT pay off. Nola allowed three runs on four hits including a two-run homer by Junior Caminero. Not only did Nola not come through, it also failed to inspire the offense. The Phillies took their scoreless streak into the 7th inning when Bryson Stott hit a one-out double, then scored on an error by second baseman Richie Palacios off the bat of Justin Crawford. The Phillies pitching after Nola didn’t help either. Jose Alvarado was charged for three runs over one-third of an inning while Jose Urquidy tossed 2.2ip allowing three runs. Max Lazar was taken for two runs in the 9th. Credit: Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Segment 1: PLAYER OF THE GAME - TURNING POINT - WHAT YOU’LL BE TALKING ABOUT Segment 2: Your Comments

| PHILLIES POSTCAST: Philadelphia Phillies WASTE Cristopher Sanchez' effort in 2-0 loss to the Rays | 26 Sep 2026 | 00:19:49 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies FAIL to back a SOLID night from Cristopher Sanchez as they fall to the Tampa Bay Rays, 2-0. The Rays opened the scoring with a little two-out lightning in the 1st inning. Cristopher Sanchez recorded two quick outs then surrendered three straight singles, with the third being an RBI single by Jonny DeLuca to right field. Then in the 2nd, Nick Fortez took Sanchez deep for a solo homer and a 2-0 Rays lead. Sanchez went on to shut down Tampa Bay’s bats after that. In total he went seven innings allowing two runs on the night on five hits and a walk while striking out 10 and throwing 100 pitches. Sanchez struck out the last six batters he faced. The Phillies offense offered no support, mustering just four hits on the night as they have now scored just TWO runs over their last 27 innings.

| PHILLIES POSTCAST: Aaron Nola tosses 7-SCORELESS, Philadelphia Phillies beat New York Mets, 3-0 | 18 Sep 2026 | 00:21:07 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies open their four-game series in New York with a 3-0 win over the Mets! Aaron Nola came up with ANOTHER great start as he allowed just three hits, issued three walks and struck out four while needing just 81 pitches to get through seven scoreless innings. He even took a no-hit bid into the sixth inning. The Phillies got on the board in the fifth inning when a Bryce Harper ground ball to short with the bases loaded and two outs. The call was originally a 6-4 force out, but the Phillies challenged the call and won! It was ruled Trea Turner just got his sliding mitt in before Brett Baty stepped on the 2nd Base Bag. That led to an RBI infield single by Harper for the first run of the game. Luis Arraez later hit a sac fly to center field to bring home Turner. Justin Crawford followed in the eighth inning with a sac fly RBI of his own to give the Phillies the three nothing advantage. Jhoan Duran pitched the 9th for his 32nd save of the season.

| PHILLIES POSTCAST: Philadelphia Phillies COME UP SMALL in 6-3 LOSS vs Washington Nationals! | 16 Sep 2026 | 00:19:46 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies lost to the Washington Nationals, 6-3 on a night where the Phils didn’t have much go their way. The Phillies jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the 1st inning on an RBI single by Alec Bohm. Unfortunately, the Nationals answered with two runs of their own in the bottom of the inning. In the 3rd, the Phillies evened things up at two with an RBI double by Luis Arraez, then grabbed their second lead of the game on Kyle Schwarber’s 45th homer of the season, a solo shot in the 5th that gave the Phillies a 3-2 lead. That lead was ALSO short lived as Andres Chaparro took Sanchez deep in the bottom of the 5th to tie the score at three. Jonathon Bowlan came in for Sanchez in the 7th with two on and one out and on his VERY FIRST PITCH allowed a three-run homer to Daylen Lile that proved to be the difference in the game.

| PHILLIES POSTCAST: Philadelphia Phillies BLOWN OUT by the Braves in Atlanta, 12-2 | 13 Sep 2026 | 00:19:47 | |
The Philadelphia Phillies get EMBARRASSED by the Braves in 12-2 loss in Atlanta. Bryce Harper put the Phillies in front in the first inning with a solo homer to center field. However, Harper took his sweet time rounding the bases as if to mock Braves right-fielder Ronald Acuna Jr for his slow, showboating struts around the bases. Unfortunately, for Harper and the Phillies that seemed to poke the bear. The Braves responded in the 4th inning when they tied it at one on, none-other-than a Acuna homer off Brooks Raley to leftfield. Atlanta would go on to plate seven more in the inning and led 8-1 when the 4th was over. Atlanta scored one more in the 6th on an Ozzie Albies sac fly RBI. Justin Crawaford got the Phillies’ their second run on a solo homer to right in the 8th.
