Your Phillies dropped their second game in a row Friday night, losing 7-4, to even our record at 3-3. It was a lackluster effort accompanied by very (very!) sloppy defense. After yet another error filled inning, the manager watched half his team walk off the field on the way to the bench.
It was then that we went all Dallas Green on the 8-year olds.
"We are here to do TWO things! To have fun and try as hard as we can! I don't see many people having fun and half of you are walking around like you lost your best friend! If you're not having fun, if you're not willing to try as hard as you can...THEN DON'T COME ANYMORE! Maybe you can go play soccer or lacrosse or something!"
(The Playmaker, one of four kids who hustled from start to finish, was 2-3 with 1 RBI.)
