Phillies Reveal Banners Honoring Frontline Heroes Outside Citizens Bank Park
The Major League Baseball opening day is tomorrow, but the Phillies have already revealed the frontline heroes they will be honoring outside Citizens Bank Park.
The Phillies are recognizing essential workers who have risked their lives during the pandemic.
The team held a contest earlier this year asking fans to nominate a frontline health worker to be honored through an official banner.
“There can never be enough gratitude shown to the extraordinary men and women who have been on the front lines since the onset of the pandemic,” Michael Harris, Phillies Vice President, Marketing and New Media told Eyewitness News. “Their bravery and commitment to the community is remarkable. With the help of our fans, some of these amazing individuals who go above and beyond each day will now be honored in a unique and memorable way at Citizens Bank Park.”
The honorees chosen took part in a photoshoot for their banner at Citizens Bank Park.
