Pete Mackanin continues to argue with logic, and lose

Let’s approach last night’s game against the Boston Red Sox in a logical progression using some truths we’ve learned in the 2017 Phillies season to date:

1. The Phillies are not good.
2. Because it’s not a good baseball team, there is a razor-thin escape hatch for error if the Phils want to win games against good teams.
3. That margin decreases when the Phils play a good team on the road.
4. The Boston Red Sox, at 35-28, are a good team.
5. The margin for error when playing the Red Sox on the road is super razor thin.
