PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — It’s been almost a decade since the Bronx Bombers visited South Philadelphia but finally the Yankees are back for a three-game series against the Phillies.
The last time the Pinstripes made their way to Citizens Bank Park was in 2009, when the Yankees and Phillies squared off in the World Series. The Phillies won that Game-5 battle but they would end up losing the war for the championship in Game 6.
A lot has happened since that time, as both the Yankees and Phillies are building their teams back up to prominence.
