The South Siders snapped their 21 game losing streak tonight in Oakland with a 5-1 win to fall 2 games short of matching the 1961 Phillies record of 23.
That Phillies team was made deliberately worse by keeping their younger players off of the major league roster all season,thus keeping them safe from the expansion draft following that season.
