Reading Fightin Phils News Release


R-Phils to be prominently seen on MLB Network Sunday night

The R-Phils and FirstEnergy Stadium will be prominently seen on "The Pen" MLB Network's hit show that documents the daily happenings of the Philadelphia Phillies bullpen. The 3rd episode of the show, much of which was shot in Reading, will air on Sunday, June 28 at 8:30 PM on MLB Network.

A crew from MLB Network was in Reading on June 20 to chronicle Brad Lidge's day here on rehab assignment. Footage from that night's Service Electric television broadcast vs. Harrisburg and plenty of action from behind the scenes at FirstEnergy Stadium will air.

The R-Phils return home on Tuesday for a 7-game homestand through July 6. Three patriotic fireworks shows are part of an exciting promotional lineup.
