Awesome video! Baseball history is so fascinating. And I never knew Ruth played his last game in Philly.

Good video, but Baker Bowl wasn’t the first ballpark for the Phillies. Recreation Park was. 1887 to 1938 was how long they played in the Bowl. Where did they play from 1883-1886? Recreation Park.

Dude, get your facts right. They moved to the Vet in ‘71, not ‘76.
