What does it mean to "Shoot the shot?" Phil uses three marks in history to show the personality traits and actions of individuals that live by that motto.

Listen in to hear Phil reflect on the game the Boston Red Sox lost the World Series to the New York Mets in 1986 and the games that led the Red Sox to their 2004 World Series win. He also shares part of 26th U.S. President Teddy Roosevelt's speech "The Man in the Arena."
