With temperatures slowly starting to climb out of the teens and Philadelphia Phillies spring training right around the corner, the anticipation for baseball is starting to build. Before you know it, it'll be late March and Phillies baseball, along with their 2025 promotions will begin. Last year's promotional schedule was highlighted by the retirement of Cole Hamels, but what does this year have to offer?
While the Phillies open the season down in the nation's capital for a three-game series against the Washington Nationals, their return home is filled with a week's worth of promotions. If you're in Citizens Bank Park for the home opener against the Colorado Rockies on Monday, March 31, then you'll receive a 2024 NL East Champions pennant similar to the one that you can find flying above Ashburn Alley. Then, all fans 15 and older will receive a McDonald's Opening Night T-Shirt on Wednesday, April 2, during the second game of the series.
The first week of promotions wraps up on April 5, during the second game of a three-game set against the Los Angeles Dodgers, where kids 14 and under are gifted with a knitted hat when they walk through the gates in honor of Cavity Busters Kids Opening Day.
