...Crimson arrived in Philadelphia for a doubleheader with Penn fresh off a spring break road trip that had exposed the lack of pop in the middle of its order, the lack of experience in its starting rotation, and the lack of reliable firemen in its bullpen. Those shortcomings didn’t seem to matter in the opening game, as freshman Max Perlman cruised to his first career...

There’s one particularly memorable image where, as T-Pain sings “I got money in the bank,” money appears on-screen, dripping with liquor.
