Our founding fathers didn't fight a revolution 250 years ago for Philly not to stuff the All-Star Game ballot box 🗳️ h

What happened: The Phillies posted a playful social message invoking the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution to rally fans to vote them into the MLB All-Star Game. The tweet leaned on Philadelphia's place in U.S. history and included links to the official ballot.

Why it matters: All-Star nods reward standout play and fan engagement, and Philadelphia is leaning into both as it rides a hot stretch. The post continues a run of tongue-in-cheek social posts the club has used to fire up its base during the voting window.

By the numbers: Philadelphia sits at 6-4 this season on a three-game winning streak, going 3-2 over its last five with 2.4 runs scored and 2.7 allowed per game.

What to watch: Watch whether the campaign moves the needle on vote totals before the All-Star ballot deadline.
