As requested, in the series against the Cubs, the Phillies managed to win a game before the series finale. Unfortunately, after winning the opener, they slept through the next two games, and even found a way to lose on Aaron Nola Day. (Honestly, Nola picked the right day to not be at his best, because as awful as the Phillies looked at the plate, I don’t know if even his best effort would have lifted them to victory.)
Now, the Phillies head to Miami. Much like Ponce de Leon once ventured to Florida in search of the mythical fountain of youth, the Phillies will travel to Florida in search of a series win that seems as elusive as the fabled fountain at this point.
