Phillies at Rockies: September 2nd

Thursday 7:10

This is a make-up of the game postponed back on May 11th due to freezing rain/snow in Denver.  The game was originally rescheduled as part of a double header on May 12th, but the Phils and Rockies only got in one game before Mother Nature forced the cancellation of Game 2.

1978 Kellogg's #28

And this is glorious 3D baseball card of the former Secretary of Defense, Garry Maddox, recently purchased from Checkoutmycards.com.  It has nothing to do with today's game, but it's a fantastic card and I felt like sharing.

Records: Phillies 75-58, 2nd Place in the NL East (3 games behind the Braves); Rockies 69-63, 3rd Place in the NL West (7 games behind the Padres).  The Phils have a 1½ game lead over the Giants in the NL Wild Card race, and their magic number to clinch the Wild Card is 28.  That's right - I'm breaking out the Magic Number.  Go Phils!

Phillies Probable: Joe Blanton
