"Split Decision"


Well because of the miserable weather the first part of this holiday weekend we had two back to back double headers for the fighting Phils. The Phils are still very much in the race for the wild card, but as far as getting it done things could have gone better this weekend. I would have liked to have seen them taken 3 out of 4. At this point they basically need to take 3 out of 4 for ever series they play in. However the series was split at 2 games a team.

The 4 games series played in roughly 48 hours was not without it's highlights. Including Chase hitting two homer runs in the one game, and Ryan Howard breaking the Phillies Single Season homerun record even more wide open with 3 homers in the first Sunday game.

The Phillies have done a pretty good job of chipping away at other teams in the standing, but they need to pull ahead of the heard. They have yet to pull all the way into first place. Time is simply running out on the season. It will basically be a game of musical chairs with about 4 different ball clubs for the wildcard playoff spot.

At any rate. We are truly lucky to have a guy like Ryan Howard playing for our team. One of the best athletes to come into city in a very long time.

Does anyone actually think the Phillies are going to make it to the playoffs? Or is this just too little too late?
