Topper seems to like to give guys a day off after they first return from injury. At least that’s what I’m telling myself.

This is like when I see a product whose formulation and labeling simultaneously make it an adulterated food, misbranded drug, and misbranded dietary supplement all at once. Few also make themselves medical devices too.

My plan was to happily watch the Phillies chew up and spit out the Marlins instead and we went from bases empty, two outs in the 7th up 3-0 to losing 7-4.
