Phillies 2018 Record: 41-33
2nd Place in NL East, 1.5 games back of 1st place Braves
7-3 in their last 10 games
Who would have thought after a 12-3 loss to the Brewers on June 9, having lost their fourth straight and having been outscored by a total of 24-7 in their last two, that the Phillies were going to win their next four series in a row against quality opponents like the Rockies, Brewers, Cardinals, and Nats? The Phillies are winners of 9 of their last 12 games with a chance to sweep the Nats on the road before welcoming the best team in baseball, the New York Yankees, for a three game series.
