PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The 2021 Philadelphia Phillies season will kick off with a limited number of fans, all masked, in the stands - much different than other Opening Days.
Last year's home opener took place in July in front of cardboard cutouts, also much different than other seasons.
Let's take a stroll down Phillies memory lane and see some images of the Boys of Summer's first home games from past seasons.
