Female Fans Take the Field for Major League Fun at Phillies Behind the Diamond Event
It was a jam-packed day for female fans at Citizens Bank Park as dozens took part in the sold-out, all-day Phillies Behind the Diamond Clinic for Women event sponsored by Inclusive Collection, part of World of Hyatt.
Before that day¡¯s game against the Milwaukee Brewers, fans participated in on-field and behind-the-scenes stations that gave them a taste of the major leagues. The guests had a tour of the Phillies clubhouse, learned about the control center for the giant PhanaVision scoreboard and checked out the ballpark¡¯s press box before hitting the field for baseball clinics with Phillies coaches, who taught them how to hit, pitch and field like a pro.
The participants were also treated with a surprise Q&A with Phillies catcher Garrett Stubbs, as well as a conversation with Phillies broadcasters Larry Andersen, Scott Franzke, John Kruk and Gregg Murphy. After an action-packed day, the budding major leaguers cheered on the Phillies as they defeated Milwaukee, 2-1.
