1986 Topps #53

1986 Topps #475

Monday and Tuesday 7:05, Wednesday 4:05
Citizens Bank Park - Philadelphia, PA

At the Ballpark:  The city of Philadelphia allowed the Phillies to move to about 11,000 fans in the ballpark beginning with Sunday's game, so if it seems incrementally louder that's the reason why.  Fans attending both night games against the Mets will receive a McDonald's Opening Night t-shirt.  The Mets will finally begin their 2021 season after a coronavirus mini-outbreak on the Nationals led to the postponement of their series over the weekend.
