Phillies making the most of schedule in bottom-heavy National League

The Phillies entered play Saturday with baseball's best record, but the better informed haters had already checked in on social media with their counter-digs. In going 30-10 since then, the Phillies have not lost a series … nor have they faced anyone who has a .500 or better record. Among the Phillies' early opponents, only the recently perennial National League East champion Braves have a winning mark, checking in at 26-15, 3 1/2 games behind the Phillies at the start of play Saturday. Among the teams this Philadelphia juggernaut has steamrolled are the Colorado Rockies (15-29), the Chicago White Sox (14-33) and the Miami Marlins (14-33).
