The Philadelphia Phillies have been synonymous with the NLCS as of late, more particularly though, the World Series. Throughout their recent run in their current “dynasty,” they have supplied fans with many unforgettable moments. Those along with others in their grim past culminate to make up this list.
Currently, the Phillies are a consistent team that is ever-improving, but this was not always the case. Over the past 127 years, the Phillies are the losingest franchise in all of sports. Their fans take in this dubious distinction with a strange sense of pride. I personally recall being at Citizens Bank Park in 2007 to see their 10,000th loss. In particular, I recall a loud “BOOOOOOOOO” in unison at the end, this was symbolic of just how bad this team was. Yet, ironically, 2007 was the turning point, and now it’s recalled as the “beginning” of this “dynasty.”
Now, let’s recount those great NLCS moments throughout the Phillies’ history, most of which have come from the history that has been made over the past few seasons. These moments have given Philly fans chills during “chilly” October nights in the City of Brotherly Love and will most surely give many of us chills all over again.
