Reading Fightin Phils News Release


(Reading, PA) -- Calling all Reading Phillies fans! The R-Phils need your help! Come out and support your club as they make an exciting late-season playoff push!

The Reading Phillies head into their 6:35 p.m. game tonight in sole possession of second place in the Eastern Division -- six games back of first place New Hampshire. Reading currently leads the Trenton Thunder by just a half game, with Trenton playing a doubleheader tonight.

And, while both teams continue to battle-it-out for that final playoff spot, the New Britain Rock Cats are right behind them (the Rock Cats are 7.0 games back of New Hampshire, one game back of Reading, and a half game back of Trenton).

Things are getting interesting, and with just six home games left, the R-Phils will need your support at FirstEnergy Stadium!

Any fan interested in watching post-season baseball right here in Reading can do so now by purchasing 2011 Eastern League Playoff tickets.

Fans can stop by the special ticket plan table located in VIST Financial Plaza to purchase post-season tickets, or call 610-370-BALL.

All 2011 season ticket holders and mini-plan holders were given the first opportunity to secure seats for the 2011 Eastern League Playoffs. Season ticket holders and mini-plan holders interested in taking advantage of this opportunity can purchase a special playoff strip, which offers a $2 per ticket discount over individual ticket prices, and guarantees tickets to all possible home playoff games. The playoff strips guarantee season ticket holders their exact seat for the playoffs, and mini-plan holders their same level of seat they enjoyed during the regular season - all at the regular season price.

For Mini-Plan holders, the faster you order, the better the seats you will get, as tickets will be printed in the order they are received. First to order get the best seats.

"The earlier a season ticket holder or mini-plan holder purchases tickets, the easier it will be for us to guarantee them the best seats before they go on-sale to the general public," said R-Phils Director of Ticket Operations Mike Becker. "It's exciting to have our team in playoff contention, and we look forward to hosting our fans here for some games in September."

Playoff Ticket Strip prices are as follows:

- $55 - Blue Box Seat Season Ticket Playoff Strips ($11 per ticket)

- $50 - Yellow Box Seat Season Ticket Playoff Strips ($10 per ticket)

- $60 - Deck Buffet Passes per Game - Buffet Only ($12 each)

- $25 - Reserved Parking Pass per Game ($5 each)

* When ordering the Playoff Strip for all games, your credit card will not be charged until the conclusion of the playoffs.
