TORONTO - The Phillies need Wilson Ramos in the lineup as much as possible in the season's final 32 games.
Everybody knows this, particularly his teammates. They watched Ramos go 4-for-5 with a double, home run and three RBIs in Sunday's 8-3 victory over the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre. His opposite-field double in the second inning scored the Phillies' third run. His opposite-field two-run home run in the eighth inning handed the Phillies a six-run lead.
The victory kept the Phillies three games behind the first-place Braves in the National League East and two games behind the Brewers for the second NL Wild Card.
