Breaking News : The Philadelphia Phillies Has Made Former Contract Agreement To Resign A…

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Aaron Nola stood by his locker inside the Phillies’ clubhouse Tuesday for what may have been the final time. The longest-tenured Phillie will become a free agent once the World Series ends, a series that won’t include Nola and his teammates.

The Phillies’ magic ran out Tuesday after a heartbreaking 4-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks in the franchise’s first ever Game 7.

Nola described Philadelphia as being a second home to him. He reflected on the relationships he formed over the years, from the dreary rebuilding stages to “Dancing on My Own” of the past two falls. He again expressed a desire to come back.

Meanwhile, Phillies managing partner John Middleton was in the first base stands, interacting and handing out baseballs to fans. He then told CBS News Philadelphia that Games 6 and 7 of the NL Championship Series were “horribly disappointing,” but he said he envisions the Phillies “to have a really good run of five to 10 years.”
