For all you Philly fans who have been rooting for your team for years and are happy to see them on the verge of being called a dynasty ( wait for it- soon the media will be rolling out the term) I thought I would link you to a nice piece about a guy who grew up across the street from Schibe Park and had bleachers on his roof.  Chicagoans got the idea from somewhere don’t ya know.

This Jeff Gammage piece is for anyone who loves the history of the ballparks, or simply the history of those that loved the game over the years.  By the way it comes to me by way of Lee, one of my colleagues who knew I would love the piece.  If you see something you think I’d like, don’t hesitate to send me a link!
