A franchise over a century old, the Philadelphia Phillies still own only one world championship—the glorious, long-overdue Series of 1980. This book relives all the action of that remarkable season .
An accomplished sports reporter for the Philadelphia Inquirer who has covered the Phillies since the late 1970s, Fitzpatrick examines the standout championship year and how the Phillies overcame numerous obstacles and finally claimed their place in history...The result is a thoroughly entertaining work that anyone who enjoys baseball would appreciate but Philadelphia-area patrons most of all.
