How the Philly/NYC Rivalry is Shaping Playoffs Against Mets
For the first time in their long history, the Phillies are in the playoffs against their rivals up I-95, the New York Mets. Red October has arrived. Executive producer Matt Katz, who is unfortunately a Mets fan, sits down with Abraham Gutman, a Phillies fan and reporter at the Philadelphia Inquirer, who is covering the fan vibes at these games. They talk about the playoffs, the New York-Philly rivalry, and an off-the-field moment that makes baseball so special.
