If you’re going down to the ballpark on Saturday, or just getting hammered in the lots and not actually going into the stadium, check out this rundown the Phillies sent over:

10:00 a.m.

New Era Phillies Team Store open until 3:00 p.m. (entrance on Citizens Bank Way). The Team Store is fully stocked for the postseason, offering fans a wide variety of NL East Division champions and Red October novelty items, headwear and apparel, much of which is ballpark-exclusive. Features everything from collectible gear to game-day essentials, whether commemorating the regular season or gearing up for the NLDS.

3:30 p.m. 

Check out all the new postseason gear at the 40-foot merchandise trailer on Citizens Bank Way.

Phillies Postseason Block Party, Citizens Bank Way (no game ticket required): This two-and-a-half-hour pregame fan event features music by DJ HBK on the Phillies Block Party Stage presented by Hatfield.

Other highlights include the chance to ride on a giant Ferris wheel, try out the bungee jump, get your face painted or play cornhole at the Budweiser Bar.

Plus, enjoy tasty offerings from local food trucks, as well as samplings and giveaways by Phillies partners including Coca-Cola. Audacy radio stations will also be on site.

4:08 p.m. 

All gates open. All fans will receive Postseason rally towels, compliments of GIANT and Pennoni. Also, the New Era Phillies Team Store and Phillies Authentics Shop (behind Section 133) featuring game-used items are both open to ticketed guests.

6:00 p.m.

Be in your seats for the on-field festivities surrounding the introduction of the Phillies and Dodgers,which include the 50 state flags held by members of the Philadelphia Police and Fire Departments and the unfurling of a large American flag held by members of the Pennsylvania State Police and veterans of the United States armed forces.

The first pitch is going to be thrown by Michael Jack Schmidt. National Anthem sung by Tasia Jungbauer from the musical SIX, which is apparently a British comedy written about the six wives of Henry VIII. No clue if it’s any good, but if you’re going to the theater this year, we suggest seeing Tommy and Me, written by Ray Didinger.

There is also an online auction taking place:

Bid on autographed Phillies memorabilia until Sunday, November 2, at 6:00 p.m. on phillies.com/auctions, benefitting Phillies Charities, Inc. Highlights include autographed memorabilia from Harrison Bader, Alec Bohm, Nick Castellanos, Jhoan Duran, Bryce Harper, Aaron Nola, J.T. Realmuto, Kyle Schwarber, Edmundo Sosa, Bryson Stott, Matt Strahm, Garrett Stubbs and Trea Turner. Other highlights include a helmet autographed by the 2025 Phillies, as well as a commemorative bundle in honor of Kyle Schwarber hitting four home runs on the same day Abbott Elementary was filmed at Citizens Bank Park.

Of course, you are encourage to use take SEPTA and arrive early to mitigate the common clusterfuck at the sports complex.
