They needed this win. Hopefully the Phillies can steal one more from the Braves

Reds win
Marlins lose
Cubs, Diamondbacks idle

Phillies lead Diamondbacks for #1 wild card by 3.5 games

Whoever the Phillies end up facing, you hope they have to use their best starting pitchers the final week in order to clinch the #2/#3 spots. Four teams fighting for two spots is good for us.

Schwarber's HR was 483 ft

45 singles

#2 in walks
#7 in runs
#3 in home runs
#7 in RBIs

He's going to get some #8, #9, #10 votes for NL MVP and probably finish in the teens.

He just needs to be the FT DH next year - as the OF play is too costly

Sorry, folks. Long, rough day today.

Amazing result for the Phillies with what looks like a standout performance by Wheeler. Can't wait to catch the replay. I will say again hat the HR route isn't sustainable, but the raw power is satisfying against hated rivals. Lol.

Somehow, this team seems to rise to the occasion. It would be nice to see Nola follow up tomorrow.
