what's deal with demarco murray. he was back in uniform after missing yesterday with are respiratory illness but he still didn't do much at all today. held out of all seven on seven and 11 on 11 drills. they've only practiced four days and murray's missed most of them. of course he's one of the many newcomers on this team that looks far different than last year. think of sam bradford inryan matthews byron maxwell alonzo. the guys tell me they think they're super deep at every position now. you have to wonder how all these fresh faces will mesh together. chemistry is important. malcolm jenkins says that's fine. >> you bring in quality guys that are competitive and want to be the best it's easy to get along. everybody comes to work every day with a positive attitude, applies guise are thirsty to play well and succeed and dominate. we're not happy with just, you know, being a little bit better than we were last year. we want to be the best in this league and every day we come out here we're competing to do

that. >> seethe sound hungry. sam bradford really stood out to me today. he just looked so much better than all the other three quarterbacks his poise in the pocket, his throws. it was really impressive. coming up at 6:00 we'll talk about the forgotten man at running back that is ryan matthews. live at the novacare complex eagles training camp jaime apody channel6 "action news. jeff. >> great to hear about bradford. all eyes on him and that knee. chase utley expected to return finally to the phillies lineup tonight in san diego for the first time since late june because of that lingering ankle issue but utley may only be playing about four days a week going forward. the phils rebuild project in full effect. the youth movement perhaps sparking the team. they have won 13 of their last 18 games since the break and they've only lost one series. the fans not the only one feeling better these days at the ballpark. the players feeling pretty good, too. >> for sure, for sure it's more fun to watch. we having a lot of fun. like i said everybody is

running to the bat right, not taking any plays off, playing good defense and it feels good to be on a team like this. >> fun to watch, too. finally move over harlem globetrotters. there's a softball team traveling around with a few tricks up their sleeves. check this out. this batter batting backwards, spins around and gone. what in the world just happened? this comes from a montreal based trick softball team. take another look there. the batter swings around from the right side hits left still hits the home run. if playing softball isn't hard enough as i have found out if you saw my video from the other day. those guys right there just completely showing off. makes me look bad. back taigles in the studio. >> and if you did miss that video, it's on 6abc.com, jeff. we want to make sure everybody sees it. i'm sorry about that. a father's day treat came a little late for one very special dad. the action cam was at philadelphia runner in center city this morning where brian

scan live radar all is quiet after a very dreary day is the tractor-trailer shore especially witday at theshore. you can see that early ominous looking sky. we had some rough seas with the winds out of the northeasterly direction but we will clean it up for you at the shore if you're down there the rest of the weekend. as we look at the almanac in philadelphia for at a, it was 87 for the high. 1 degree above the normal and the low where we should be at 69 degrees so a pretty perfect day and that 106 degrees back in 1918 that's the hottest it's ever gotten in philadelphia so thankfully we were far off from that this afternoon. as we look north and west of town, 82 in quakertown. warrington 83 degrees. a very pleasant 80 right now in that saint davids as well as slatington and fleetwood. to the south and east again because of those winds off the water and also the clouds that we saw most of the day and still lingering in southern in southern cape may sun, 75 in

sea isle city, bridgeton 79 and hockessin delaware with sun up to 82. there you can see the clouds that lingered through again, good chunk of the day even with some showers in the morning and early afternoon hours, south of atlantic city, but now north atlantic city you can see the sun returning there and beautiful up in the lehigh valley and as we widen out, we have low pressure down to the south over north carolina and that will slowly move off the coast and be about a few hundred miles east of atlantic city this weekend. that will really churn up the waters but for tonight it's clear its calm, it's seasonable, 59 to 68 degrees for that low temperature. that low again off the coast tomorrow. it is sunny, 87, nice with low humidity and as we get into sunday that low migrates and continues to pull away. 87 with high pressure to the north trying to wedge in that dry warm air. there could be some high clouds coming in in the afternoon with some filtered sun on sunday but overall a decent weekend but an increased risk for rip currents this weekend with that low off the coast.

so, again, watch for some very choppy waters, 77 saturday sunny and nice sunday at 80 degrees. and in the poconos, beautiful there. upper 70's for highs. a lot of sun. low humidity. and just a few clouds on sunday. the exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast, 87 for the next two days. so, exactly duplicate of today. and then monday clouds increase in the afternoon with a chance of a scattered thunderstorm of 86. but it's more humid with a front on tuesday, more active day of 84 and then that front slips to the east here so we dry out wednesday of 85, looking great on thursday, mid 80's. and then clouds will increase again on friday but temperatures remaining below average at 84 degrees. so, as we're going into the second week of august, looking pretty good with no 90's and no extreme humidity. >> can't ask for better than that. >> no, you can't this time of year. >> thanks adam. >> much more "action news" when we come right back.
