Monday night at Citizens Bank Park was not only a low point for the Phillies, but also a low point for whoever decided to highlight this statistic on PhanaVision for NL MVP candidate Cody Bellinger.
Feels like you're asking the MVP candidate to torch you during this four-game series... pic.twitter.com/7tI3ua4fM6— Meghan Montemurro (@M_Montemurro) July 15, 2019
Well, that certainly didn't age well.
Not only did Bellinger grab his first RBI of the season against the Phillies tonight, he slugged a pair of home runs to give him 33 on the season, the most in the Majors.
Sometimes it's not good to poke the bear, because you might wake it up.
