Philadelphia Sports-Talk Personality Does His Best to Jinx the Phillies

A Philadelphia sports-talk radio host declared the National League East race 'over,' practically inviting a jinx on the Phillies.

The Philadelphia Phillies haven't won a division title in the always-tough National League East since 2011. They also haven't won the World Series since 2008.It's entirely possible that the 2024 Phillies represent the city's best baseball team since the heyday of Jimmy Rollins, Ryan Howard, Roy Halladay, and Chase Utley.

since then, the Phillies have been 10 games better than the Braves for the better part of two months. This thing hasn't been close.'I understand the date...but this division is over. It's over. The Phillies have won the National League East.'Setting aside the substance of the argument, is there any more surefire method of jinxing a team?Recent history suggests the Phillies are out to tread lightly.
