Things looked bleak for the Philadelphia Phillies last night before Kyle Schwarber's grand slam erased a three-run deficit. Was that one swing enough to turn things around for the scuffling Phils?

Alright, so the Philz, uh, woo, boy they had struggled since you were up at last night,
00:04
no.
00:05
I mean, initially, sure, but matter of fact, we can't go any further, I gotta hear it,
00:09
Seltzer, over-unders today, eight.
00:13
Do we play the Grand Slam more or less than eight times today?
00:16
What's your prediction, James?
00:18
Whatever the prediction is, it can't be enough.
00:20
It can't be enough.
00:21
Let's put one on the board.
00:22
Swarmer ahead of the count, it's two balls and a strike, as Edward Cabrera kicks and
00:27
Deals in the pit, swung on, a hit in the air, left field, going back on it, is Stowers
00:32
at the wall, and it's gone, and he has turned it around with one swing of the bat, Kyle
00:39
Swarmer, a Grand Slam, and the Phillies now lead it six to five.
00:47
You know when you're in a slump, John, and you just know you need something, you've probably
00:53
been in those kind of slumps, John.
00:54
The seventh career Grand Slam, and Kyle Swarmer knows how to end an offer, my goodness.
01:05
This is great.
01:06
If that doesn't jump-start it, I don't know what will.
01:10
Wow.
01:11
Listen to the crowd, that's good stuff.
01:13
That's the leader right there.
01:14
My arms literally went in the air at the moment it happened, like straight in the air.
01:19
Yep, that's the leader.
01:21
That's a man who knows what this team needs and has the just uncanny ability to get it
01:26
done.
01:27
Man, just beautiful, beautiful hands in a pressure-packed situation, and that's, yeah,
01:33
that's what we needed.
01:34
That's the turning point, isn't it?
01:37
It feels good.
01:38
Well, and the guy we wanted up, like if you could have picked anyone on the roster to
01:41
be up in that spot, it's Kyle Swarmer right now.
01:43
Look at you, Dawg and Harper.
01:44
Would you have picked Harper right now, today?
01:47
It is what it is, Harper.
01:48
Swarmer's been better.
01:49
And it's exciting, and it's awesome.
01:51
So we want to hear from you, obviously, you know, if you were at that game and playing
01:54
better, too, last night, I mean, Swarmer was just incredible, no doubt about it.
02:01
But hey, Brandon Marsh had a couple of hits last night, guys, JT Real Muto, we were worried
02:08
about him.
02:09
Yeah, Bryson Stott.
02:10
Johan Rojas, some huge bats.
02:11
Yes, no question.
02:13
And so it does feel like the offensive approach, not just for Kyle Swarmer, but for the team,
02:22
we were battling and it felt familiar, not recently familiar, but familiar back before
02:29
the All-Star break when we knew that no matter how distant it got, no matter how far that
02:35
thing got away, it usually didn't get away too far because our starting pitching was
02:38
so good, but we knew we always had a chance.
02:41
We knew we were in every game.
02:44
That gaze that our players had last night while they were behind, while they were trailing,
02:49
they knew they were still in it if they worked those at-bats, which is exactly the way it
02:54
transpired.
02:55
And notable, obviously, that it's a few hours after the Phillies held a team meeting.
02:58
Now, we can't tell you a thousand percent they held a team meeting because no one's
03:01
saying it on the record, but based on the tea leaves and the reporting, everyone's like,
03:06
yeah, we think they had a team meeting.
03:08
We think they had a team meeting.
