I always see people on the interwebs saying, “oh great, Ruben is in the booth today” and “Thanks Ruben, such great insight” so I figured people want to hear more from me. So here I am! (as a parody account)

So we’ve got Philadelphia, phat, the Phillies, and the Phanatic. But the team’s nickname is the Fightins without the Ph, what’s up with that, Tom?

Two pearls of wisdom I said tonight before the game even started:
-The Phillies should swing at pitches in the strike zone
-Ranger is a good pitcher because he knows how to pitch
-The Phillies should swing at pitches in the strike zone
-Ranger is a good pitcher because he knows how to pitch

T Mac liked my “pretty tall company” joke about Altuve. Kruk isn’t the only one who can be a riot in the booth.

I realized earlier when T Mac was talking about the Brewers logo that I like “Brew Crew”, so I’m going to say it a few hundred more times this weekend.

Michael B commented that T Mac was impressive for flying back and forth cross country to attend his daughter’s graduation then back to call the weekend Phillies games. Ben Davis said “and boy are his arms tired” people say Kruk is funny but he doesn’t come out with gems like that.

I’ve said some stupid shit but I’ve never rambled on for two innings about a can of oxygen like my pal Ben Davis has been doing.

I inadvertently threw some good shade at the Cowboys. The stump the fans trivia question was which team in each of the big four had the longest championship drought.
My answer for the NFL was the Cowboys. 😬 Go Birds

If you’re watching a Phillies game and hear me repeatedly say “he’s just one pitch away from getting out of this inning”, keep in mind that eventually I’ll be right.
