The Phillies are back on top of the overall MLB standings after five consecutive Ws. To the tweets we go:
Bryson Stott drove in the first run of the game, then kicked off a big sixth inning with a home run.

As Tim wrote after the game, Kody Clemens continues to prove that he belongs with the Phillies.
20 years ago Kody Clemens has a grocery endorsement in Lansdale with a full page ad in the Intelligencer

Kody Clemens does nothing but deliver for the Phillies when he gets that call-up. A big 2-run homer to give the Phils the lead yesterday afternoon, and a clutch 2-run double to extend the lead against Miami tonight.
Love to see it.
Kody Clemens is an ultimate off the bench type player. He deserves to be on this team full time
The Kody Clemens WS MVP speech will be historic

Ranger Suarez's velocity was down, but it didn't stop him from throwing five shutout innings:

Suarez also continues to be one of the best-fielding pitchers in the game:
Another insane play by Ranger Suárez.

That play by Ranger might have been the most impressive play by a Phillies pitcher since the Velasquez left handed throw.
Bryce Harper was in the starting lineup despite suffering from a variety of bumps and bruises:

What’s up Bryce Harper? He’s only hit 2 home runs since July 27.
Up 8 with 22 to go nice position. Best record in MLB and now 3 up on brewers. Wheels /nola next two, very easy rest Harper next 3 #RingTheBell
Anthony's piece on the Phillies and their NFL jerseys got some love as football season kicked off:
I love Stubbs so much https://t.co/5y65JM8CsS pic.twitter.com/W5b7t4ryhN
The win, coupled with a Braves loss, expanded the Phillies' lead in the NL East.
Don’t let the start of the NFL distract you from the fact that the Phillies now lead the division by 8 games and the magic number is down to 15 #RingTheBell pic.twitter.com/652d1DGPP2
Anyway, here's this:
