This Day in Philly Sports History - August 3, 2024

The Phillies get blown out again and I'm officially hitting the panic button. What that means? I have no clue. Merrill Reese gets inducted into the Hall of Fame tonight as the winner of the Pete Rozelle Radio-Television Award. Much deserved honor for one of the GOATs. The Question of the Day is "Which is more to blame for the Phillies struggles: Pitching or Bats?" Today's Philly Olympic Spotlight - Kelee LePage - Field Hockey from Honey Brook. On this day in 2003 The Linc officially opened with Manchester United beating Barcelona 3-1. In 1930 Chuck Klein hit in his 26th straight game. In 2006 Chase Utley hit in 35th straight and in 1976 the Phillies and Cubs played a double header that only took 3 hours and 51 minutes.
