@MHennelly19Tori Sheffer
Tori is so excited to join the team as a Contributor to That Ball's Outta Here, a Phillies FanSite! She has previously been fortunate enough to cover her two favorite teams, the Phillies and Red Sox, as well as the Mariners, Orioles, and Cubs, through Fans First Sports Network for the past year. Having loved the Phils since her first game at The Vet, she has followed this franchise through its highest highs (having been at CBP the night they clinched the World Series in '08), and lowest lows, and she cannot believe she gets to live the dream, intersecting her passion for writing with her love of baseball, especially in Philadelphia. When not glued to MLB Network, she can usually be found exploring the streets of NYC.

About FanSided
The idea of FanSided was born in 2007, when two brothers felt that their favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs, was being under-covered by the mainstream media. Taking matters into their own hands, they launched Arrowhead Addict, a move that would spawn the creation of FanSided in 2009, a network of over 300+ fan-powered unique sports, entertainment and lifestyle sites dedicated to team-specific, sport-specific, genre-specific, and fanbase-specific coverage. From sports, movies and TV to lifestyle and tech, FanSided has you covered.
