A pitch hit the Philadelphia Phillies All Star second baseman, Chase Utley. He broke his hand and should be sitting for about one month. Abraham Nunez will most likely play second base for now. This is a major loss to the Phillies. He is hitting .336 with 41 doubles, 17 homers and 82 RBI. The Phillies have been playing pretty good baseball and might make the playoffs. Chase Utley said that he should be back before 1 month. If he does come back that soon that would be very good for the Phillies. I think the Phillies will make the playoffs. Look for them to be pretty good the rest of the season. Hopefully their star slugger comes back soon.
