Currently, the Phillies have lost 9,999 games since their first game on May 1, 1883.
While no fan wants the team to suffer another loss, it would be fitting for the record 10,000th loss to fall on Friday the 13th as they take on the St. Louis Cardinals.
It’s not the Cubs? I’m surprised. Maybe it’s the demoralizing effect of the team losses that’s causing all the crime.
