101 Reasons to Love the Phillies

10,000 losses. Wow. The Philadelphia Phillies are the first team in the Major Leagues of Baseball to reach 10,000 losses. The first thing that would probably come across your mind is, “These guys must be terrible.” Well, you have to see it to believe it. Never call the Phillies terrible, because, and trust me on this, they will blow your mind in a game. Travel through time with this book, from the 1883 Philadelphia Quakers to the 2008 Philadelphia Phillies. As you start to read this book you start to understand that the Phillies have evolved from the losing team to what happens today, win after win. When you’re done with this book, you can share the 101 reasons to love the Phillies with your friends and family.

I had an awesome time reading this book. I enjoyed the Phillies’ bad moments and the Phillies’ good moments. I thought the Phillies are so much better today than they were in 1883 to the 1970’s. Rob Green, Jr. brought back the glory of the young Whiz kids who are mainly built up by Richie Ashburn and Robin Roberts, and he brought back the memories of the 1980 World Series that the Phillies eventually won. I would recommend this book to all the loyal Phillies’ Phans [I think it’s a must read for all Philllies Phans] and to people who like to learn facts about a topic that they don’t have a lot of knowledge of. So, pick up 101 Reasons to Love the Phillies and start reading!
