If the Phillies rally to win the National League East, they will have a chance to raise the championship banner next season against the team they would have surpassed.

They will host the Twins (April 5-7), Tigers (April 30-May 1),White Sox (Aug. 2-4), and Red Sox (Sept. 14-15). They will have a rare Friday off before the start of the Red Sox series.
The Phils will visit Wrigley Field for a four-game series with the Cubs from May 20-23 and head to Dodger Stadium for a three-game series from May 31-June 2. The Phillies will close the season at home with a three-game series against the Marlins from Sept. 27-29.
