Today is the Civil Rights game, Phils vs. Braves. They are wearing some pretty cool throwback uniforms. The Phils are wearing their powder blue and maroon unis. Many people don't like them, but I kind of do. Takes me back to my youth. The unis look like they do on the Kruker below. Not my card, but I wish it was. The patch is sick.
On to the tin!
Joe from The Sandlot sent me a package recently, and when I opened it I saw this cool tin that held some cards.
The tin held Phillies cards, that is. Inside was a great mix of current and former players, including hall of famer Robin Roberts. Also included was a Michael Bourne rookie card. Bourne was originally drafted by the Phillies but was later traded. He's one of the fastest guys in the big leagues.
Thanks for the cards, and the tin!
Kruk joined the Phillies in 1989. By that year, the "away" uniforms were grey (similar shade to what they have now) -- not baby blue.
