According to stats.com, this is the fastest in Phillies history that the team has clinched a playoff berth (146 games). The 1912 Phillies did it in 147 games. The next part of the process for the Phillies is to turn their focus towards claiming their fifth consecutive National League East title. FIFTH! That is... Back to back, to back, to back, to back. I think?
There are 16 games left to be played on the schedule, and all our to be played within a 14-day span. Not only do the Phillies have the chance to remain at the top of MLB in wins, but they also have a chance to return to the biggest stage of professional baseball, the World Series.
