The Philadelphia Phillies paired up with 2 non-profits to introduce Major, a 10-week-old black lab pup that will a trained service dog for disabled veterans.
It brought a big smile to my face when I found out Stephanie Di Ianni was the woman in Philadelphia responsible for flipping off Houston Astros pitcher Justin Verlander outside the Phillies stadium.
A year after winning 82 games and missing the playoff for the 10th straight season, the Phillies are looking to end the longest active playoff drought in the National League.
As expected, the Phillies have declined the 2022 options for center fielder Odubell Herrera and left fielder Andrew McCutchen. Herrera is still arbitration eligible, McCutchen is now a free agent.
