How to watch Friday's Phillies-Cubs game

Ricky Bottalico and Michael Barkann evaluate the Phillies’ season at the All-Star break and discuss what they need to improve to make the playoffs.

The push for the postseason is about to begin.

The Philadelphia Phillies return from the All-Star break with a matchup against the visiting Chicago Cubs on Friday night. It will be the first of three games between the two clubs at Citizens Bank Park.

The Phils went into the break on a high note, sweeping the Miami Marlins in South Florida. They'll now look to carry that momentum into the second half of the season as they sit in the National League's third and final wild card spot at 49-43, with the St. Louis Cardinals (50-44) and San Francisco Giants (48-44) right on their heels.
