A win tonight was needed. Sure, the Phillies have a nice lead and almost certainly are going to the post season, but watching tonight early on I had the 1964 flashbacks. The 6 run inning made the rest of the night much more enjoyable.
Mets had a shot of moving to 3 games behind the Phillies this weekend, but one win makes the best they can do is move to 5 behind. If the Phillies win one of the two remaining games, the Mets gain nothing on the Phillies this weekend. Frankly, I am pulling for two more Phillies wins to end this series.
