Good news for Philadelphia Phillies fans who are missing baseball a little extra these days.
For the first time in approximately 500 days — since the 2019 season finale defeat to the Miami Marlins that secured the franchise’s 11,000th all-time loss — a limited number of fans will be allowed in the stands at Citizens Bank Park, come Opening Day of the 2021 season.
On Friday, the Philadelphia Department of Public Health announced an exciting change — one step closer to hopefully returning to normal sooner than later.
