Our beloved ‘Ners enter this mid week series with the Philidephia Phillies after taking 2 out of 3 from the Cardinals. The Phillies enter the series hot, having won 7 of their last 10 and fresh off of taking three straight against the Rockies. However despite the recent success, the Phillies have struggled to start the year sitting at 11-12 heading into the series, and 4th in NL East. This will be the 5th straight interleague series for the Mariners; they have yet to play an AL team besides the Angels and the Guardians.
