Series Preview - Phillies at Giants: August 8th to August 11th

1971 Topps #554
1971 Topps #412
Thursday 9:45, Friday 10:15, Saturday 4:05 and Sunday 7:05
Citizens Bank Park - Philadelphia, PA

Phillies Probables:  Aaron Nola (10-2, 3.60), Drew Smyly (1-1, 3.00), Vince Velasquez (4-6, 4.23), Jake Arrieta (8-8, 4.41)
Giants Probables:  Madison Bumgarner (6-7, 3.92), Tyler Beede (3-6, 5.38), Jeff Samardzija (8-9, 3.70), TBA

At the Ballpark:  The Giants are holding their second Marvel Night on Thursday and they'll celebrate National Baseball Card day on Friday with a pack of cards going to all fans.  On Saturday, the first 20,000 fans will receive a Giants Fog Globe, and I'll admit I'm not really sure what that is.  On Sunday, the 30th anniversary of the 1989 Giants team will be celebrated with a pre-game ceremony and the first 20,000 fans will receive a Battle of the Bay pin.

  1. No one the Cardinals received in the 1969 trade for Curt Flood/Tim McCarver/Joe Hoerner/Willie Montanez/Byron Browne lasted very long in St. Louis.

    Dick Allen was only there 1 season. Cookie Rojas and Jerry Johnson even less!
