The sports scene in Philadelphia is electric at the moment as the 76ers get set to begin the 2022-23 season on Tuesday while the Phillies are in the National League Divisional Series against the rival Atlanta Braves.
The Phillies hosted their first playoff game since 2011 on Friday in Game 3 of the series and after splitting the two games in Atlanta, had stolen home field advantage. The scene at Citizens Bank Park was on another level as the fans were extremely excited to have their team back for a playoff game.
The Phillies took Game 3 by a score of 9-1 thanks to a 3-run homer by Rhys Hoskins and a 2-run homer by Bryce Harper. That supported a strong outing by starter Aaron Nola as Philadelphia is now one win away from the League Championship Series.
A few members of the Sixers were in attendance on Friday after the team had practice. They showed their support for the local baseball team.
