    Scott Franzke is not worried about the Phillies setting a new regular season franchise record in wins. His eyes are on the prize.

    "Well, I watched them win 102 and then get outsed in the first round, so," the Phillies radio play-by-play announcer told Jon Johnson (in for Joe Giglio) and Hugh Douglas on Friday's 94WIP Midday Show when asked about the Phillies potentially breaking the franchise win record.

    "It's a number and it's great or whatever, but when we look back on 2011 we don't really look back at the fact that they won 102 games.

    "I mean I am not saying it's nothing because I think players would look back and would want to be a part of something like that, but I think in the end, especially this group—they've been very, very close to winning it all. That's their sole focus and goal and that's what they want."

    The Phillies begin the second half of the season tonight in Pittsburgh with a record of 62-34, best in Major League Baseball, which puts them on pace to indeed break the 2011 team's 102 win franchise record season.
