About Patrick Gordon

Gordon’s connection to baseball began as a player growing up in Philadelphia. He played youth baseball in Juniata Park before attending Northeast Catholic High School and later Temple University.

As his playing days wound down, journalism became the way he stayed connected to the game. What began with notebooks, local assignments and early professional reporting eventually led to the creation of the Philadelphia Baseball Review in 2007.

The goal was simple: build a publication that treated baseball in Philadelphia as one connected ecosystem, from the major leagues to college diamonds, amateur leagues and neighborhood fields.

Gordon also teaches sports journalism and career development at Temple University and holds a master’s degree in journalism.

Reporting Experience

Philadelphia Daily News Phillies credential from Gordon’s early journalism career.

Gordon’s professional reporting career began before the launch of the Philadelphia Baseball Review, with work for local and national publications covering baseball and sports.

He has regularly covered the Philadelphia Phillies as an MLB-credentialed reporter over the past two decades, working regular-season and postseason assignments that have included the National League Championship Series, World Series, and All-Star Game.

His Major League Baseball reporting has also taken him to multiple MLB Winter Meetings and into clubhouses, press boxes and stadiums across the country. 

Across more than two decades in journalism, Gordon’s work has ranged from Major League Baseball to college and amateur baseball, youth development and Philadelphia baseball history, with an emphasis on firsthand reporting and original storytelling.
