Beloved analyst John Kruk provided quite the unexpected gem during the Philadelphia Phillies’ 3-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies at Citizens Bank Park. Kruk, celebrated for his candid and humorous style, found himself battling a computer glitch during a commercial break in the fourth inning. But this wasn’t any ordinary tech hiccup — it made its way onto the live NBC Sports Philadelphia broadcast, much to the amusement of fans.

Caught in the moment, Kruk exclaimed, “Ah, this damn thing,” as he tried to tackle his electronic foe. His broadcast partner, play-by-play announcer Tom McCarthy, gently reminded him that they were live on air.

Undeterred and with his characteristic charm, Kruk continued. “Well, in between innings I’m toying with this MLB thing, and man, is it just winning,” he explained, the frustration evident in his voice.

“It says I can’t get emails on that email.”

McCarthy, ever the supportive teammate, suggested a classic move — resetting the email password. But Kruk’s digital woes were far from over.

“When I try to reset the password, I put in a new one and it doesn’t do anything,” Kruk grumbled. “I might have to meet with [Phillies VP of marketing] Mike [Harris] on Saturday.”

So, if anyone’s tech-savvy enough to help John Kruk with his email, now might be a good time to step up. Meanwhile, the Phillies are aware of the situation, adding another layer of camaraderie to this amusing saga.

Despite Kruk’s password predicament, the 2025 season is off to a promising start for the Phillies. With the first couple of series wrapped up, Philadelphia is perched at the top of the NL East, boasting a solid 5-1 record.

Now, they’re gearing up for a weekend showdown against the undefeated Los Angeles Dodgers. Baseball fans, let’s settle in — this season’s shaping up to be a rollercoaster of excitement and, apparently, tech support drama.
