Only five teams in baseball — Boston, the New York Yankees, Houston, Atlanta and Arizona — have a better record than the Phillies after the Phils’ four-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants. The Phillies are 22-15. A year ago, they did not earn their 22nd victory until June 15, and by then, they had 43 losses and fans were dying for the start of Eagles training camp. The Phillies this week also pulled off their second four-game sweep of the season, duplicating the feat they inflicted on Pittsburgh last month. The Phillies had a total of two four-game sweeps from 2012 through 2017.
