The Phils attempted to continue their series with the Marlins tonight but mother nature intervened. Joe Blanton allowed the Marlins to jump out to a 2 -0 lead on an RBI double by Jeremy Hermida in the bottom of the 1st. From there the teams played only another inning and half before play was halted by rain in the bottom of the 2nd. A little over an hour later the game was cancelled thanks to an impending massive line of storms. So the Phils have yet another game to make up down the stretch of the season. That means they're going to be playing an inordinate number of games between now and the end of season with very little rest. In fact their next off day is not until August 3rd, over 2 weeks away. Hopefully they're far enough ahead in the division now that they won't have to run out of gas trying to clinch a playoff spot between now and the end of the season.
