One game.
That's all that stands between the Phillies and the .500 mark. It won't happen tonight. The Phils are off before they open a series in D.C. against the Nationals.
Yesterday this maddening team got both good and bad news.
The good? Another gem from Cliff Lee, who went the distance in shutting out the Marlins, 3-0. Lee gave up just three hits in blowing away the Fish. Delmon Young supplied the offense with another homer.
The bad? Chase Utley is having pain in his ribcage. He's going to have an MRI today. The Phils really can't afford any more injuries.
A good weekend in Washington would vault them over the Nats and allow them to set their sights on division-leading Atlanta.
If would probably help if they could get everybody on the field. In the meantime, everyone will hold their breath waiting for the results on Utley's MRI.
