Happy Hump Day! The Phillies return to action today playing their first night game at Citizen's Bank Park. Zack Wheeler is on the mound. The Sixers improved their chances of keeping their 1st round pick running out their 52nd different starting lineup last night. We take a peek behind the curtain and then continue our discussion of Walter French.
Today's Question of the Day is "Is Curt Schilling a Hall of Famer?"
Today we discuss Walter French losing his starting spot to a Major League legend.
On this day in 1992 the Phillies traded Jason Grimsley to the Astros in exchange for Curt Schilling who would on to be their ace for 9 seasons.
Meet Lenny Wagner, the author of “Playing with the Best: One Man’s Journey through the Golden Age of Sports. The book chronicles the amazing life of Walter French who won both an World Series and NFL Championship.
April 8 at Mount Laurel Historical Society @7pm
