I’m your host, Jeff Pearlman
Welcome to Press Box Chronicles with Jeff Pearlman—the show where a cranky middle-aged sports writer who has seen it all takes you behind the scenes and into the stories.
The ‘93 NLCS between the Phillies and Braves was an all-time classic …
That’s one way to get the boys ready … 😂😂
There’s only one John Kruk … 😂
Baseball teams used to be fun …
The most fun team of the ‘90s is this week’s topic on a brand new Press Box Chronicles ⚾️
💻🎧 Out everywhere now
Today, we're diving in to - in my opinion - the last, most INSANE team in MLB history - the 1993 Philadelphia Phillies.
This team rivaled the '84 Padres & the '86 Mets with World Series runs, they rivaled the level of insane, bat-sh*t craziness that each of those teams had, too. And that's what we're going to dive into today on the Press Box Chronicles.
