PHILADELPHIA − Back on April 26, when the Phillies fell to 9-19 after having lost to the Braves, they would have loved to be in the position they are in now.
So here the Phillies are, having gone 70-42 since. They are just four games behind the National League East leading Braves as they begin a crucial four-game series at Citizens Bank Park on Sept. 4, with a three-game series in Atlanta beginning Sept. 11.
The Phillies (79-61) currently hold the top wildcard spot in the National League, one-half game in front of the Cubs.
