Phillies Nation

In this jam-packed episode of Phillies Nation TV, Pat and Corey discuss Jimmy Rollins’ candidacy for the Hall of Fame, plus look back at a wild series against the Reds.

Natalie talks with Jen Utley about her and Chase’s involvement with the PSPCA. Natalie also has some fun at the Utley Foundation Casino Night, talking with Michael Young, Kevin Frandsen and Ruben Amaro, among others.

And last but certainly not least, Ian is with sandwich maven Tony Luke, as they attempt to capture the experience of eating delicious cheesesteaks and roast porks in South Philly!

Australian pitcher Josh Warner began the 2013 season as a member of the starting rotation for the Class A Lakewood BlueClaws. Through six starts, the 20-year-old right-hander posted a 1-3 record along with a 7.50 ERA. Phillies brass decided to reassign Warner to extended spring training so he could make some adjustments to his delivery aimed at enhancing his deception toward hitters.

The Queensland native, who pitches for the Brisbane Bandits in the Australian Baseball League during the off-season, was signed by the Phils as an amateur free agent in 2010. Combined over the past two seasons, since making his affiliated pro debut, Warner has split his time with the Gulf Coast League Phillies, the Williamsport Crosscutters and Lakewood, posting a combined 7-13 record along with a 5.28 ERA.

Early this season I spoke with Josh for Phillies Nation TV, but the interview went unused on the television program. During the interview, Josh spoke about the growth of baseball down under, his time in the ABL and more. Check out the interview in the media player below and tune into Phillies Nation TV every Tuesday at 6 PM on The Comcast Network.

In advance of next week’s episode of Phillies Nation TV which includes an interview with the one and only Tony Luke, Jr., Ian cornered the sandwich maven in his shop and peppered him with questions about Philadelphia. Have a watch and catch Ian’s full interview next Tuesday at 6pm on the Comcast Network.

Here is the latest episode of Phillies Nation TV with Pat Gallen, Corey Seidman, Ryann Williams, and Jay Floyd.

Pat got a chance to speak with a local doctor about what goes into a surgery like the one Roy Halladay will undergo. Jay spoke with top minor league prospect Jesse Biddle at Reading, and he talked about what it would be like to get the call to the bigs.

Former Phillies left-handed reliever Aaron Fultz now serves as the pitching coach for the Class A Lakewood BlueClaws. The Alabama native spent his first season as a pro coach, last year, with the short-season Williamsport Crosscutters.

During his playing career, Fultz’s best season was 2005, when he tallied a 4-0 record with a 2.24 ERA in 62 appearances for the Phils. Fultz also played in the big leagues with the Twins, the Rangers, the Giants and the Indians.

Early this season, PN’s minor league insider Jay Floyd interviewed Aaron for Phillies Nation TV. The 39-year-old spoke about his time with the Phillies, his transition into coaching and some of his pitching prospects. The segment went unused on the TV program, but we definitely wanted to bring it to the fans anyway.
