Near-symmetry

With their loss yesterday afternoon, the Phillies reached a season-low 20 games under .500 (22-42). All signs point to that deficit getting worse – much worse – as the long summer continues in the City of Brotherly Love.

 

Meanwhile, their top minor-league club, the AAA Lehigh Valley IronPigs, has a record of 23-42, “only” 19 games under.
