'Stay Loose and Sexy,' Philadelphia Phillies' band? Brandon Marsh ignites hopes

Jason Kelce, Jordan Mailata, Lane Johnson and the rest of the Philadelphia Eagles' who performed on the classic benefit album, "A Philly Special Christmas Special," may not be the only Philadelphia athletes that can turn a tune.

Could members of the Philadelphia Phillies also create their own rock band?

Brandon Marsh dubs Phillies' band 'Stay Loose and Sexy'

Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh, mic'ed up for the Phillies - San Francisco Giants game on Sunday, May 5 on ESPN, was asked by color commentator Karl Ravech about his team picks for a band.

Ravech asked while Marsh was in the field during the top of the third inning, with the Phillies and Giants tied at 1.

Marsh seemed to give the question serious thought.

"If you had to start a rock band, who would you take from the team," Ravech asked, "and what's the band's name?"

"Oh, my gosh," Marsh responded. "I'd take Garrett Stubbs, Kyle Schwarber and I'd take [Cristian] Pache. Oh, but what's the name? 'Stay Loose and Sexy,' baby."

ESPN posted a clip of the exchange on its page on X, the social platform formerly known as Twitter:
