VICTUS & THE HISTORY OF SHIBE PARK l Phillies Nation Presented by Valley Forge Tourism l S1 E16

This week on Phillies Nation TV presented by Valley Forge Tourism, Gregg Murphy heads back to Victus Bats in King of Prussia for a lesson on how your favorite Phillies hitters' bats are made. We also have a conversation with Bruce Kuklick, former Penn history professor and author of "To Everything a Season: Shibe Park and Urban Philadelphia, 1909-1976". He paints a picture of the fan experience in the early days at the state-of-the-art ballpark in North Philadelphia. Geoff from Wheelhouse explains when and why you should get your sports cards graded with companies such as PSA and SGA. Plus we ask tailgating fans to weigh in on the debate of "Who Has Better Hair: Brandon Marsh vs Jayson Werth?" Finally the guys from The Phillies Show podcast welcome Hall of Famer John Smoltz to break down the Phils' chance at postseason success.
Additional segments include: "Shibe Vintage Sports' Crazy Philly Sports Stories You've Never Heard", "Card Collector's Corner by Wheelhouse", "This Week in Philly Baseball History", "Make It Montco Business Spotlight", "Phillies Nation Fan Questions", "Tiny Mic Interviews with Phillies Players" and "Baseball Trivia by Johnny Goodtimes".
New episodes air every Saturday an hour before Phillies games on NBC Sports Philadelphia with replays throughout the week on NBC Sports Philadelphia, Xfinity On Demand and PhilliesNation.com. Join Gregg Murphy, Sam Stafford and special guests for a fan-focused look at stories surrounding our favorite team and city. Each week they'll be joined by the experts behind The Phillies Show podcast - Todd Zolecki, Jim Salisbury and Ruben Amaro, Jr.
