Marlins at Phillies: July 17th to July 19th


Friday and Saturday 7:05, Sunday 1:35
Citizens Bank Park - Philadelphia, PA

Marlins 38-51, 4th Place in the N.L. East, 11 games behind the Nationals
Phillies 29-62, 5th Place in the N.L. East, 21 games behind the Nationals

Marlins Probables:  Jose Fernandez (2-0, 2.08), Tom Koehler (7-5, 3.40), Dan Haren (7-5, 3.24)
Phillies Probables:  Adam Morgan (1-2, 4.32), Chad Billingsley (1-3, 6.75), Cole Hamels (5-7, 3.63)

At the Ballpark:  Saturday night is Photo Night with all fans being invited down on the field prior to the game to take pictures of their favorite Phillies players.  I believe this is the first time this particular promotion has taken place prior to a night game.  All fans also receive a magnetic photo frame on Saturday night.  On Sunday, fans 15 and over will receive a Phillies travel mug.

1985 Topps #713
1985 Topps #714
1985 Topps Appreciation:  I thought this would be a good time to feature two of the Phillies-related All Star cards from the original 1985 Topps set.  Mike Schmidt and Ryne Sandberg started in the same infield for the N.L. All-Stars in 1984, 1986 and 1987.  Both were also recently named to the Franchise Four teams for the Phillies and Cubs respectively.
