The Phillies are Wearing Powder Blues for Game 5
The Phillies won the 1980 NLCS against the Astros in their powder blue jerseys and now they have a chance to win the World Series in them:
Confirmed @MattGelb reporting:
I'm told the #Phillies will wear the powder blue uniforms for Game 5 tomorrow night as they normally do for Thursday home games. Throwback Thursday. @KYWNewsradio

Is it a hot take if I say the powder blues can go head-to-head with the kelly green Eagles jersey? I don’t think it is. It’s one of the greatest baseball jerseys of all time. Tim McGraw was at the game Tuesday night wearing the his dad’s old powder blue jersey:

UPDATE: Turns out it might not be a powder blue November after all:
So, I have also been told the powder blue uniforms are available for the #Phillies to wear tomorrow, but things could change.
At this point, my read on it is it's definitely a possibility. Key word is possibility. @KYWNewsradio https://t.co/3Xq9JyJ4Cf
