The Philadelphia Phillies secured the NL East title for the first time since 2011 with a 6-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs. The win was highlighted by home runs from Kyle Schwarber and J.T. Realmuto, much to the delight of the Phillies fans in attendance.
With a record of 93-64, the Phillies now hold the No. 2 spot in the National League, trailing just behind the Los Angeles Dodgers. The team is eyeing the top seed in the NL playoffs and a first-round bye if they can maintain their position in the standings.
