The Philadelphia sports scene is already overcrowded. But here's one more thing.
The Philadelphia sports scene is already overcrowded. But here's one more thing.
In my younger years, I was a big fan of keeping score when I attended Phillies games. As such, I have a mound of old scorecards that highlight the games that I went to, spanning the seasons from roughly 1997 to 2005.
In 2019, I began writing occasional retrospectives on these specific games for Section215.com, as I find the anniversary of a game to be a good occasion to explore it. Here is a comprehensive list of links that will take you back to these snapshots of Phillies history...
