520 $a"This Day in Philadelphia Sports offers a concise 366-day approach to looking back at the history of Philadelphia sports. Every day on the calendar is represented with a fun tidbit of information of what happened on that specific date in the history of one of the greatest sports towns in the world: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Every page is filled with the recounting of specific events from the Phillies, Eagles, Flyers, and 76ers, as well as the local college and high school sports teams. The authors incorporate fun facts, specific information, and thoroughly researched statistical data into each entry. From the day in early April of 1992 when the Phillies acquired legendary pitcher Curt Schilling, to Allen Iverson's 55-point showing against the Hornets in the first game of the 2003 playoffs, and so much more, the authors take you through the greatest moments in Philadelphia sports history, as well as those moments when the pain of being a sports fan is full force in the City of Brotherly Love. It's all here, in This Day in Philadelphia Sports. "--$cProvided by publisher.
