The Phillies opened a huge series tonight with the Florida Marlins. Coming into the game, the Marlins had a .5 game lead on the NL East, but they are playing a Phillies team that has seen their bats come alive over the past week.
The hot Philadelphia offense didn’t cool down one bit. The Phillies hammered the Marlins to the tune of 12-3. Brett Myers got his first win in the month of May and Chase Utley hit his 18th homerun of the year. If he keeps playing like this, there is a good chance there will be a Philadephia player as NL MVP for the third straight year.
