MLB news: Sept. 28 -- Phillies will return to postseason for first time since 2023
A 6-0 victory over the Atlanta Braves assured the Philadelphia Phillies a wild-card berth in the upcoming National League playoffs.
At 86-74, the Phillies trail the Miami Marlins by five games in the National League East Division with just two games remaining in the regular season.
Philadelphia could steal with top seed among the wild cards from the Cardinals should it win its final two games and the Cardinals, who are playing the NL Central-leading Brewers, drop their final two.
The Phillies won the season-series from St. Louis 4-2.
Philadelphia last reached the World Series in 2022, when it lost to the Houston Astros.
The Phillies last won it all in 1980 with a defeat of the Kansas City Royals.
