The one thing you do not want to do if you are playing against the Phillies in October is give them any kind of bulletin board material or something to yell at. They feed off it and will do anything to get power over the other team.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!We saw this with Orlando Arcia in the previous series. Some media personality thought he heard Arcia say “Atta boy Harper” in the locker room after Harper got thrown out at first to end game 2. No one knows if it was said, not even the media personality, but Phillies fans used it as motivation, and so did Bryce Harper.
