BALLGAME!!! Nola does his job. The offense shows up late and Romano looks like the guy he’s supposed to be. Come on home boys. #RingTheBell

If the Phillies continue to win and show up on national tv that would be a really funny bit

Phillies win the series with a Romano save? I’ll take it.

Nicely done. #Phillies go on the road and win a series against a good Cubs team. Aaron Nola actually looked good tonight. Might this be the start of them getting it back together? Let’s hope. #RingTheBell

The #Phillies pulled through tonight. Don’t get me started on Rojas. But Nola and bullpen came through, Turner’s speed is *chefs kiss*, Casty getting better at the count, Bohm did something. The bunts & fielding were dumb. But overall felt like a solid win?

Phillies take 2 of 3 vs the Cubs. It’s big, but losing 2 of 3 to the Braves and getting swept by the Mets still hurts.

That was a game of baseball tonight. #Phillies get great pitching and just enough hitting. Take 2 from a red hot Cubs team on the road shows me the Phils aren’t dead, just yet! #RingTheBell
