A few things are happening today. First, the Phillies look to sweep a team in the 2020 season. Yes, something that seemed impossible for them to accomplish not a few days ago now looks likely as Zack Wheeler takes the hill to try and polish off his former team.
Second, the Phillies and MLB across the board are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Negro Leagues.
