In case you were working this afternoon and weren't able to tune in for the Phillies game in Detroit, Odubel Herrera absolutely killed a baseball off of Tigers pitcher Anibal Sanchez to put Philadelphia up 5-1 in the top of the 4th.
The ball was crushed and Odubel knew it immediately. He displayed one of the best bat flips a Phillie has flipped in recent memory.
Franzke and L.A. seemingly enjoyed it greatly.
