I would think Furman AD Jason Donnelly is on the short list of candidates. An administrator and assistant basketball coach at Villanova before going to Furman. He also has a good relationship with Jay Wright, who I’d imagine will have some input on this hire.

The biggest series of the 2024 season begins tonight at CBP. Phillies and Braves for the next 4 games. Phillies Pregame Live coming up at 6:00 on NBC Sports Philadelphia with Michael Barkann, ricky bottalico & Ruben Amaro, Jr..

Phillies have put the leadoff man on base in 4 out of the first 5 innings tonight. No runs to show for it. 0-for-6 with RISP and they've left 7 men on base. Letting Charlie Morton off the hook.

Its only one game against an unranked West Virginia team that doesn’t look particularly good… but Penn State’s offense looks leaps and bounds better than last season. Much more imaginative play designs and concepts under new OC Andy Kotelnicki.

Win #80 for the Phillies. 6-game lead with 26 to play. They’re in a really good spot. Would be great to extend it to 7 tomorrow. But at the very least the Braves won’t make up any ground in this 4-game series. Mission accomplished in that regard.

That’s a big time effort from Al Golden’s guys tonight. Notre Dame’s secondary is outstanding... Really impressed by how Marcus Freeman coached this game. Huge road win to start the season. ☘️

I don’t watch Marcus Freeman take the field from ground level every week. But this felt different from the start.

25 regular season games left for the Phillies. They begin a 6-game road trip tonight in Toronto. Phillies Pregame Live coming up at 6:30 on NBC Sports Philadelphia with Michael Barkann, ricky bottalico & Ben Davis.

Phillies aiming for a 2-game sweep of the Blue Jays after Kyle Schwarber’s historic performance last night. Phillies Pregame Live coming up on NBC Sports Philadelphia at 2:30 with Amy Fadool Kane, ricky bottalico & Ben Davis.

Ranger Suarez takes the mound for tonight’s series opener against the Marlins. We’ll have Phillies Pregame Live coming up at 6:00 on NBC Sports Philadelphia with Michael Barkann, ricky bottalico & Ben Davis. Phillies aiming for a 5th straight win tonight in Miami.

Man that’s a tough loss for the Ravens. Love that Harbaugh was going to go for 2 though.

The Fightin’ Phils have won 5 straight and 10 of 12. Here’s the latest PhilliesTalk podcast with myself and Spencer McKercher. Schwarber’s hot streak. Seth Johnson’s opportunity. Zack Wheeler’s rapid ascension up the list of all-time great Phillies pitchers. m.youtube.com/watch?v=hUbHXl…

Phillies looking for a 6th straight win tonight. Magic number to clinch the NL East is down to 15. Phillies Pregame Live coming up on NBC Sports Philadelphia at 6:30 with Amy Fadool Kane, ricky bottalico & Ben Davis. Zack Wheeler on the mound against the Marlins.

You never know what you’re going to get on the pod. Just a little Birds analysis before the season opener from my guy, Sean Kane 🫡

The Phillies aiming to take 3 of 4 from the Marlins and move closer to their first NL East title in 13 years. Phillies Pregame Live coming up on NBC Sports Philadelphia at 1:00 with Michael Barkann, ricky bottalico & Ben Davis. Seth Johnson making his MLB debut against the Marlins.

Seth Johnson's line is complete - 2.1 IP, 8 H, 9 ER in his MLB debut. Didn't fair much better than Tyler Phillips as the Phillies continue their search for a 5th starter. Kolby Allard is eligible to be called back up from AAA on Tuesday.

Year 2 of preschool for this guy. Back on the ‘grind’.

Terrific work by everyone involved. Gregg Murphy is the headliner. #ClassicNoles

Wonderful night at @topgolf supporting a great cause: Pitch In For Baseball & Softball … and our good friend Ben Davis.

Big congratulations to Deirdre Kane and Dick DeLaney for today’s unveiling of Kane DeLaney Court at Hollinger Field House. A great day put together by West Chester Golden Rams for two very deserving coaches. #CongratsMomMom
