 Phillies Finally Reach 10,000th Loss
Sure, the 10,000 loss mark is a testament to the Phillies futility over the last dozen or so decades, but really it just points out that the Phillies are a really, really old franchise. [link]

    I didn't think they were ever gonna get there! Imagine being stuck on 9,999 - that would be embarrasing.

... I’m not really sure what the general consensus is going to be across the blogosphere today on this whole 10,000 loss mark the Phillies finally reached last night. But, I’d have to say I’m in complete agreement with Enrico over at the 700 Level and Pat Lackey ...

... Anyway, the Phillies finally notched that 10,000th loss last night, mostly because they finally weren't facing Kip Wells or Mike Maroth. We don't know how the "celebration" went last night; we can't imagine anyone going too crazy, lest they miss the ESPYs. But we congratulate the Phillies; at the rate our Cardinals are going, we should catch up to you by the end of the year. Maybe Kip Wells can start every game. ...
