Ep. 137 - Phillies/Mets Talk as the 2nd Half Takes Off

A rare one indeed on a Saturday at 2pm ET, the 137th edition of the Rising Apple Report comes flying at you with the Mets and the Phillies right smack in the middle of their 3-game series. Sam Maxwell will host, with Mike Lecolant joining him for all the piping hot Mets talk.

Joining them as well is Ted Matey, Sam's college freshman roommate and an avid Phillies fan. He'll give us the lowdown on the current status of the Phillies franchise, who's retreaded a bit after a seriously unexpected hot start to the season. We'll get some Chase Utley talk in there as well, and what Ted thinks of all the rules that were triggered with last year's Tejada slide.

The Mets are just hovering above the surface with all the injuries that have mounted...we'll discuss what they can do to stay the World Series contender people considered them at the beginning of the season.

And we'll discuss Casey Stengel, #37, as well as the 1937 NL NY legacy.

So, join us at 2pm ET for the latest edition of the Rising Apple Report!
