Will we love them tomorrow?

The record shows that teams that win the first game of a three-game wild card series win 15 of 16 times.

After Tuesday’s loss to the come-from-behind Braves, the Phillies looked like a dead duck.

By winning today, the odds should drop to 50-50, but I don’t think it works that way.

So much weird stuff in today’s game, least of all winning on a ABS challenge. 

The question is, did the Phillies win today only to be in a better position to break our f’n hearts tomorrow?

Is there any question that this team, with its bank-vault lineup, has been a sad spectacle for most of this season? 

Should they have to have squeaked into the playoffs on the last day of the season?

No, they shouldn’t.

Yesterday, they were heart breakers. Today, they were heart-stoppers.

What will they be tomorrow?
