Phils - and their fans - are No. 1

Before we return to the saga otherwise known as the Michael Vick Experience, we must first take time to salute the Phillies.

They beat the Braves last night to notch win No. 100 on the season. It’s only the third time in the franchise’s history that a Phillies team has hit triple digits in wins.

And while we’re at it, let’s offer a salute to the fans as well.

We’ve already beaten the Yankees at one thing, and the playoffs have not started yet.

The Phils sit on top of the heap when it comes to attendance. The Phils saw 6,680,718 fans go through the turnstiles at Citizens Bank Park this year. That’s best in baseball, topping the 3,653,680 the Yankees drew.

Best team in baseball. And the best fans.

Eat your heart out, New York.
