For the first time since 2009, the Philadelphia Phillies are in the world series. The anxious fans have been waiting years for this moment. The Phillies will be facing the Houston Astros in Game One on Friday the 28th. After firing Head Coach Joe Girardi early in the season, the Phillies looked like a whole new team. The Phillies look to win their first World Series since 2008. The Phillies have had one strong playoff run, knocking off two higher seeds. The Phillies have been led by star player, Bruce Harper. Harper hit the go-ahead home run in the last game of the series, against the San Diego Padres, to get the Phillies to the world series. The Phillies were seeded 6th in the National League, barely making the Wild Card spot. Can the Phillies make history?
