Phillies waste solid Zack Wheeler outing in 10th-inning collapse against Cubs

The Philadelphia Inquirer

Phillies move closer to a playoff spot with 4-0 win over Cardinals

It was July 3, too soon by any reasonable measure for scoreboard watching. But it was also Sunday Night Baseball, the last game of the day, so the opportunity facing the Phillies was hard to miss.
