PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — It wasn’t the storybook opening night the Phillies were hoping for but the four-month wait for baseball is finally over.
“I want to hear the national anthem and know that it started and then I’ll head home and watch the rest of the game,” fan Joanne Marvel said.
To compare the scene in South Philadelphia to last year’s home opener would be unfair, as the fans we saw overjoyed by the addition of Bryce Harper in 2019 have been forced to change their demeanor a bit.
