The Philadelphia Phillies (23-16) have built up a four-game lead in the National League East Division standings over the course of the first seven weeks of the 2019 regular season.
In so doing, the Phillies have been far from dominant. In fact, the club has just one series sweep over what is fast approaching the two-month mark. That sweep came at home over the Atlanta Braves in the first series of the season back in late March.
Rather than dominating teams, the Phillies have demonstrated tremendous resiliency in fashioning an 8-3-2 series record. The club has now gone five straight match-ups (4-0-1) without losing a series.
