Phillies Have Yet To Melt Down

Hey, how about that local baseball nine? The Phillies scored six more runs yesterday to get Adam Eaton his first win and sweep the season series with the Rockies (5-0). Take that, NL champs! The Fightins are now 31-24 and have a three-game series this weekend against division leading Florida, who are only a half-game up right now.

Phillies Score 10 Safeties!

Phillyskyline’s Brad Maule sends along the above photo of Mayor Nutter celebrating Chase Utley’s three-run homer last night in the first inning. The Phillies fell behind by three runs early last night, but then went on a 20-2 run to obliterate the Rockies, 20-5.

The Phils scored 15 on Sunday in a 15-6 comeback win over the Astros and have improved their Pythagorean (expected) record by a ton (and their regular record by two wins also). Last night, the Phils scored 20 runs despite dealing with the menace of his-and-hers Chase Utley jerseys.
