So tonight the Phils pulled to within one game of the slumping Mets, and they can be tied up with the Padres by the end of the night if San Diego loses. If the Phils take the lead in the NL Wild Card race in the next couple of days, Philly fans will be able to hear a certain phrase that we haven't heard in ages, probably since 1993:
Magic Number!
Yes, just imagine the words "magic number" and "Phillies" in the same sentence.
But truthfully, MAGIC NUMBER could soon be part of our vocabulary if all goes well. Usually the Phils land on the wrong side of the Magic Number countdown and fall short of the playoffs, so we'll see if we magically pull into the lead over the next few days. Question is... who's the ace up the Phils' sleeves?
