It's not the first time Josef has interacted with Blake on Instagram, having a playful, interesting back-and-forth in August. They were also teammates this past summer at the 2019 MLS All-Star Game presented by Target


Martinez has six goals in six appearances against Blake and Philly, though hopes to add to his tally in the impending Eastern Conference semifinal match.
