If the Phillies continue to play as they did on Thursday, the drought will soon be snapped.
Philadelphia was stellar in all phases while defeating the defending World Series champion Atlanta Braves 1-0 on Thursday in the opener of a four-game series. The four-game series continues in Philadelphia on Friday.
Phillies outfielder Matt Vierling, who had five hits and the walk-off RBI single on Wednesday against the visiting Toronto Blue Jays, came back with a double and a sacrifice fly against the Braves on Thursday.
