These Are the Ghosts That the Phillies are Trying to Exorcise

What you see here is an old short video summing up the collapse of the 1964 Phillies, a team that blew a six and a half game lead with 12 to play. The current Phillies are trying to erase a seven game lead with 17 games to play, thus putting their own positive spin on history.

The video ends with the demolition of Connie Mack Stadium, making room for a "palatial new home", which you knew as Veterans Stadium. That palace is now also rubble ... and that's what the Phillies are currently trying to turn the Mets season into.
