There’s finally some baseball to look forward to.
You may have noticed that NBC Sports Philadelphia has begun re-airing some of the most memorable Sixers and Flyers games from recent memory, including last year’s first-round clinching victory against the Nets and Game 7 of the 2010 Eastern Conference semifinals against the Bruins. Now, the network turns its attention to some of the most memorable pitching performances in Phillies history.
On Thursday, March 26, NBCSP will re-air Roy Halladay’s perfect game against the Miami Marlins at 7 p.m. On March 28 at 1.p.m, the network will throw it back to 2015 and re-play Cole Hamels’ no-hitter against the Cubs in his final outing with the Phillies. To round out the trio of no-hitters, Halladay’s postseason no-no against the Reds will air at 1 p.m. on March 29.
Of course, there’s no such thing as a perfect substitute for the real thing, but rewatching some of the best Phillies games of our lifetime is an excellent alternative to live baseball. It should also be noted that Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins is set to face Marlins shortstop Miguel Rojas in MLB the Show 20 at 4:10 p.m on March 26, live on Youtube:
MLB executives hope for a June start date
, which means there will be plenty of time for NBCSP to re-air classic games. Which game would you like to see on TV with baseball on an extended hiatus?
