Seems that many people are still not worried about the Phillies. I think we average only 6 hits a game. We can win games now against the league but we saw last year what happens when it is playoff time - think 2011 World Chamion SF Giants... My father put together the below chart. Adding last nights game, we have scored 3 runs or less in 55.55% of our games.
