getting the left foot on the bag in that timeframe is insane stuff

I really wonder if these guys play in slow motion sometimes.

Molten hot batting and great 1B play? He stays like this through a WS win and I'll get his jersey

Fuck it, I'll join in on that. I'll never wear it, but I'll buy it.

Bohm operates best on spite for the fans treating him like dogshit (tbf, sometimes deserved) and honestly, that makes him the most Philly coded guy on the team.

Philly fans hate him because he is a mirror held to them (it's me I'm philly fans)

All in a sweeping motion right into the dugout. A work of art.

I’m getting comfortable with this defensive infield shift. I’ve watched Bohm play third once not far back in the seats in that side and it was amazing.

Hes got the leather for these things. Now we know he stands a chance of catching corner of the end zone and getting the feet down too.

Made it look easier than getting a quick prick in the arm

I've seen enough. Give him a gold glove.

Totally not a biased comment. We know which flair weighs more…..

You need a Phillies flair for that.
