CHOO CHOO! HERE COMES THE PHILLIES TRAIN ROLLING DOWN THE TRACKS.
For the first time since 2011, the Phillies have an 8-game win streak active. From July 29th to August 6th, 2011, the Phillies had a 9-game win streak fueled by the Four Aces. To match that total, the Phillies must face the beast of the National League: the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Dodgers might be in 2nd place in the NL West, but don’t let that fool you. They’re 67-45 and 4-2 in the month of August.
In order to win this series, the Phillies must continue timely hitting and quality pitching.
