Rise and Phight: 9/20/2022

Phillies news:

• The Phillies have shown before that they have some fight in them. They’ll need it now over these next two weeks.
• The lead in the wild card the Phillies had is starting to slip away, but there is still time left to get it done.

MLB news:

• It’s been a long time coming, but for Minnesota, they’re finally allowed to use Twins.com for their own team.
• The American League MVP isn’t the hardest award to call right now? Poppycock (it actually isn’t that hard. It’s Ohtani.)
• The Tigers have settled on the man to lead their future, selecting Scott Harris to be the president of baseball operations in Detroit.
