The MLB playoffs in Philadelphia are just a little bit different than in other cities, and the Philadelphia Phillies have their fans to thank for that. With the Los Angeles Dodgers in town for the two teams' sixth playoff meeting, the fans at Citizens Bank Park proved how different they are before Game 1 of the NLDS even started.
As player introductions were happening on the field ahead of the 6:38 p.m. ET first pitch, staff ace Zack Wheeler was announced as one of the Phillies reserves and made his way to the first base line, where his teammates were waiting, to thunderous ovation.
