The Don Mattingly era in Philadelphia is off to a rollicking start. Since taking over for the fired Rob Thomson the Phillies new skipper is now 3-0 thanks to a pair of walkoff victories over the Giants on Thursday. It's the first time the franchise has pulled off such a doubleheader feat since 1988 and the first time any team in baseball has done it since 2004.
If ever there was a day to celebrate pulling to within seven games of .500 and 9 1/2 games of first place, this was it.
