Late (Early?) Breaking News: Phillies in 1st!
Shortly before 12:30 this morning, the Phillies completed a dramatic comeback after being down 7-0 against the New York Mets to capture 1st place in the National League East. The 13-inning marathon was punctuated by Chris Coste who came off the bench to go 4-4 and cap off the 8-7 victory with a bases-loaded single in the bottom of the 13th.
An exciting game and a terrific catalyst for the stretch run for a team that seems to be hitting its stride.
With September approaching and the Fightin' Phils in 1st place, stay tuned to Phillyist to get pumped for another Phillies playoff push!
