And he'll wear high socks forever: Phillies 12, Nationals 5

Jeff Francoeur wore high socks today, and it made the difference.

This was a very good game. This was a game I'd watch over and over again. This was a game in which the Phillies trolled the Nationals hard, and the Nats responded by melting down in entertaining fashion.

Aaron Harang ended up not factoring into this game at all. He went six innings with the only real slip-up coming in the second, when he gave up back-to-back home runs to Ian Desmond and Matt den Dekker. The only other black mark on Harang's record was in the bottom of the third when he gave up a long single to Nats' starter Gio Gonzales.
