I have been talking a lot about football so it’s time to switch it up and talk baseball. The Phillies are looking good going into playoffs. They have successfully clinched their division (NL East) and the closet team are the Braves and they are still 12 games behind. With the regular season ending in a week and a half I don't see that happening. If Atlanta was to win all there next games it would only give them 8 more wins and they would still need 4 more. Plus once a team clinches a division or playoff spot there really isn't anything the rest of the teams in the division can do.
As I write this post the Phils are playing the first of their double header with the Washington Nationals. Right now it is the top of the 9th and the score is tied 3-3. The 7th inning was very hot for homers. There were two homers in this inning on both sides. The homer from Roger Bermadina set up the 3 run the nationals have and then Raul Ibanez in the bottom of the 7th pulled it through for the bull pen and gave then the tie. Right now they are just starting the top of the 10th still tied so we can only hope the Phils can pull out a run in the bottom of the 10th to finish the game.
I should probably also let you guys know what other teams are leading their division and who else has already clinched their division.
Division Leaders:
-New York Yankees
-Texas Rangers
-Milwaukee Brewers
-Arizona Diamondbacks
Clinched Division:
-Philadelphia Phillies
-Detroit Tigers
