The smile of Chase Utley: Phillies 5, Padres 3

YUP. THAT'S RIGHT. The Phillies have swept their third series since the All-Star break, and it was thanks to today's 5-3 win over the Padres. (And thanks to this win, I get to use that gif again.) It had everything you could possibly want in an entertaining game.

Stellar pitching. I have one name for you: Jerome Williams. Exactly a year after the Phillies claimed him off waivers, he pitched seven innings of five hit, one run baseball. He didn't walk a single batter. And as if that wasn't enough, it was also his longest outing of the season.
