Mets fans will be real happy to learn that Phillies are back in first place. Trailing Atlanta by seven games on July 22, Philadelphia moved into first by a half-game last night as it beat  Florida and Atlanta lost to Pittsburgh.

The Braves and Phillies have six games left against each other. The out-of-it Mets can have some spoiler fun over the weekend as the Philleis come to Citi Field for three games.
