Just the Facts

Here's some weird stuff to consider from this season:

- On the first game played in a new month this season, the Phillies are 5-1 with wins in March, April, May, July, and August.
- The Phillies are 24-13 in day games and 33-38 at night. They have 14 more days games left this season and 40 more at night.
- Cesar Hernandez is hitting .308 with an .825 OPS while hitting left-handed this year. As a right-handed hitter, Cesar is at .223 and .538. He might wanna stay on the left side.
- Tonight's starting pitcher, Jason Vargas, will set a Phillies record when he becomes the 32nd different pitcher used by the team this season. And it's only August 2.
- The Phillies, Cubs, and Nationals are tied for the NL Wild Card lead with identical 57-51 records. But of the three teams, the Phils are the only team with a negative run differential (-16).
- The Phillies have more guys on the 60-day injured list (Arano, Dominguez, Hunter, McCutchen, Neshek, and Robertson) than they do on the10-day list (Bruce, Eickhoff, Miller, Ramos).
- The Phanatic headband being rocked by Bryce Harper is one of the more interesting things a player has worn lately. It sells for $15.99.
