Taking two of three against the Mets in Queens propels the Phillies into their season series opener against the Atlanta Braves

Maikel Franco and the Phillies bats finally woke up against the Mets on Thursday in a 6-4 win. Fans saw the closer carousel continue to turn with Hector Neris getting the final three outs, but manager Pete Mackanin won’t commit to one man as his closer.

Atlanta arrives at Citizens Bank Park with a familiar name getting the start at 7:05 p.m. Former Met Bartolo Colon, who’ll turn 44-years-old next month, owns a 6-2 record inside Citizens Bank Park which is an improvement on his 0-1 record at Veterans Stadium.
