Fresh off losing both games of a two-game series against the New York Yankees, the Philadelphia Phillies are 47-47, clinging to the .500 record they only achieved right before the All-Star break.
The Phillies are scuffling a bit as they try to maintain a record that will convince Dave Dombrowski that they are worthy of trade deadline upgrades.
The Phillies have sunk back down to three-and-a-half games out of first after making up a lot of ground in the last few series.
