Driving back up he AC Expressway around 1:30 AM last night I was shocked to hear the Phillies were still on the radio. The game didn't start until 11:32 PM and ended sometime after 2:00 AM. I was probably one of the few people to hear/see it end. Turns out the Phils were flat all evening.
So the season comes down to this: The Phillies have three games in
Florida, starting tonight, while the Dodgers play three in San
Francisco. San Diego, the NL West leader, is three games ahead of the
Phils and has three games remaining, all in Arizona.
It's no surprise the season is coming down to the final weekend with the Phils hopes of a playoff birth fading. As Phillies fans know all to well, hope is a dangerous thing. I haven't given up hope just yet.
