The Red Hot Phillies polished off a four game sweep on Monday against the Giants before Bryce Harper’s Grand Slam helped the Phillies take game one a two game set against the Blue Jays before the seven game winning streak finally came to an end on Wednesday afternoon, though the Phils did have some chances. Still, loss 11271 in franchise history certainly wont stop us from ringing the bell for the first place Phils.

The Phillies – amazingly – wrapped up their best opening road trip in over a decade with their second straight series win taking 2 of 3 against the Cardinals.

It was a whole lot of singles... more than match.com as they seem to say around here, so Let’s Ring the Bell for a strong road trip as the Phillies face off in a battle for Pennsylvania.
