I guess they overheated
About 3 weeks ago I wrote a blog about how hot the Phillies are now that summer is here. Since I wrote that, the Phillies have won 4 games and lost 11, including today’s 5-0 defeat at the hands of the Oakland Athletics. So I am just here to clarify, summer is heating up and the Phillies have overheated and now cannot hit their way out of a paper bag (although I don’t know why they would want to). When they do hit, then pitching or baserunning or defense lets them down. Amazingly, they are still on top in the National League East. Let’s hope they start winning and stay on top, rather than becoming “the team to get beat” in the East.
