What I Do

I report and write about the Phillies and Major League Baseball. I also host "Phillies Extra," The Inquirer's online baseball interview show.

My Background

I have covered Major League Baseball — in Philadelphia, Boston, and now, back in Philly — since 2006. I am the author of two books: "The Big 50: Philadelphia Phillies" (2019) and "Phillies Confidential: The Untold Inside Story of the 2008 Championship Season" (2008).

Before joining The Inquirer in April 2018, I covered the Phillies for the Wilmington News Journal during the glory years of Jimmy Rollins, Chase Utley, and Ryan Howard (2006-09), and the Red Sox for the Boston Herald (2010-15) and ESPN.com (2015-18).

I graduated from Boston University with a bachelor's degree in journalism and live in South Jersey.
