September 7: PHILLIES 8, Florida 7
September 6: PHILLIES 7, Florida 6 (2nd game)
September 6: Florida 7, PHILLIES 1 (1st game)
It took 99 days for the Phillies to reclaim what was rightfully theirs, first place in National League East. Finally, the Braves lost on a day the Phillies won (that's a gross exaggeration), and that propelled the Quakers back to their customary place atop the standings.
And it's been a long, strange trip back from the depths of the NL East ladder. Even last night's game had a tinge of "uh-oh" painted all over it when the Phightins blew another late-game lead and then had to fight back to win.
Not much to say about the events of the past 48 hours, other than to say, "Phew!", and hope that this latest stand atop the table will be permanent.
Later tonight, a look at the roads the Phils and Braves will be travelling as we approach the finish line of the 2010 campaign.
